  Provider

  GL Assessment produces the Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning and Spatial Awareness tests specifically for the Lincolnshire Consortium Grammar Schools.

  Delivery

  Two in-person tests are administered by the grammar schools, with candidates recording answers on the required answer sheets; the same tests may be taken only once in the school year.

  The two LCGS tests are standardised to identify the required ability range, commonly the top 25%; each member school applies its own determined qualifying and oversubscription policy, so reaching the consortium standard does not itself guarantee a place.
