Admissions information

Queen Mary’s Grammar School Admissions & Entrance Test Details

The Queen Mary’s Grammar School entrance test is the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test, sat on Saturday 12th September 2026. Here is everything you need to know about the admissions process and exam structure.

Exam Board & Format

Queen Mary’s Grammar School selects pupils through the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test, provided by GL Assessment and shared by the grammar schools across Birmingham and the wider West Midlands partnership, so a child registers and sits the test only once for any of them. The test consists of two papers, each lasting approximately 60 minutes (including time for instructions and example questions), divided into individually timed sections covering English Comprehension, Verbal Reasoning, Mathematics and Non-Verbal & Spatial Reasoning. All questions are multiple-choice, with answers recorded on a separate answer sheet, and there is no writing component.

Test Timing & Structure

The entrance test for 2027 entry is held on Saturday 12th September 2026, with two sessions (morning and afternoon); families are asked to keep the whole day free, as a child is allocated to one session. The two papers are split into timed sections, and the results are weighted 50% for English and Verbal Reasoning, 25% for Non-Verbal Reasoning and 25% for Mathematics. Scores for each section are age-standardised so that younger children are not disadvantaged.

Eligibility & Registration

Registration for the entrance test is completed online through the West Midlands Grammar Schools website (westmidlandsgrammarschools.co.uk) when the child is in Year 5. For 2027 entry, registration opened on 5th May 2026 and closes at 4 pm on Friday 26th June 2026; late registrations are not permitted. Parents must then name Queen Mary’s Grammar School on their home local authority’s Common Application Form by 31st October 2026.

Results & Offer

The entrance test takes place on Saturday 12th September 2026, with results released to parents around 16th October 2026, before the Common Application Form deadline. Meeting the qualifying score does not guarantee a place, as each school applies its own oversubscription criteria. School allocations are confirmed on National Offer Day, 1st March 2027.
