Selection route

Eligibility
Only pupils who have sat the Bexley Selection Test and are deemed selective are eligible to be considered for September 2027 entry.
Score policy
The London Borough of Bexley Selection Panel sets the total score pupils must achieve to be deemed selective. Meeting that standard makes a pupil eligible but does not guarantee a place.
Oversubscription
The current school admissions page links only to its 2026/27 policy, so the September 2027 oversubscription criteria are not verified.
Registration
GIAS does not publish the current test registration URL.
