Admissions information
The Wirral Grammar School for Girls entrance test is the shared Wirral Admissions Test. Here is everything you need to know about Wirral Grammar School for Girls admissions and the exam structure.
Wirral Grammar School for Girls is one of the four schools in the Wirral Grammar Schools Consortium, alongside Calday Grange Grammar School, West Kirby Grammar School, Wirral Grammar School for Boys and Wirral Grammar School for Girls, which share the Wirral Admissions Test. A child sits one test that can be used for any of the four consortium schools. The test assesses verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning and mathematics, and entry is on the basis of academic ability.
The Wirral Grammar School for Girls 11 plus exam consists of two multiple-choice papers taken on the same day, each lasting around 50 to 60 minutes, covering verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning (including spatial reasoning) and mathematics. Children mark their answers on a separate answer sheet, and scores are age-standardised. For September 2027 entry the Wirral Admissions Test takes place on Tuesday 15 September 2026.
For Wirral Grammar School for Girls 11 plus registration, families must register their child for the Wirral Admissions Test online through Wirral Council during the registration window, which for 2027 entry opens on 1 May 2026 and closes on 1 June 2026. Families must also submit their Local Authority Common Application Form (CAF), naming the school, by 31 October 2026.
Test results are sent to parents in mid-October, ahead of the 31 October application deadline, with allocations made on National Offer Day on 1 March 2027. There is no fixed pass mark; a qualifying standard is set after the tests are marked, and reaching it does not guarantee a place, as the school applies its admissions criteria where demand exceeds places.
Key admissions details
Wirral Grammar School for Girls has a Published Admission Number of around 175 places for Year 7. The school is regularly oversubscribed, so a qualifying score combined with the Wirral Grammar School for Girls admissions criteria determines who is offered a place.
Wirral Grammar School for Girls does not operate a formal catchment area, but distance plays an important role in final allocations. Entry is based first on a qualifying score; where qualifying applicants exceed places, priority follows looked-after children, children with a valid medical or social reason, Free School Meals places, siblings, and then remaining places by distance from the school, so the Wirral Grammar School for Girls catchment area is effectively defined by distance.
