Not every area is here yet

Some areas run their own school-by-school tests. If your area is missing, its school pages in the grammar school directory list the evidence we hold.

Frequently asked questions

Where do the dates come from?

Each date is copied from the published timetable of the council, consortium or school that runs the test, and shows the date we last checked it. Always confirm on the official page before acting.

Why does a date say not yet published?

We only show a date an official source has published. If a test administrator has not published a results date or similar, the calendar says so instead of guessing.

Can I add the dates to my calendar?

Yes. Download a calendar file for any test, or subscribe to it so your calendar app picks up changes after we check the official page again.
