We welcome applications from pupils to join Latymer Upper School in Year 7. Children from a range of primary and preparatory schools sit the exam each year.
Registration for Year 7 entry in 2023 is now open. Open Days take place in the Autumn Term, bookings are now open, for more information please click below.
For entry in September 2023, children should be in Year 6 at the time of the entrance exam scheduled to take place at Latymer Upper School, Hammersmith. Registrations are now open, the date of the exam is Wednesday 7 December 2022.
All pupils registered prior to the deadline (please refer to the timetable below) will be invited to take the exam which covers English and Mathematics.
Latymer Upper School sets its own papers in English and Mathematics; sample papers are available via the button below, these are indicative of the style of questions and we do not provide answers or a mark scheme. There is one Maths paper (60 minutes) and two papers for English – comprehension/multiple choice (35 minutes) and creative writing (45 minutes) with a 20 minute break after the Maths paper. If your child is eligible for learning support adjustments, you will be asked to submit supporting documents after registration. Selected candidates will be invited back to School for an Interview Session after the entrance examinations. Interview Sessions will be held in School on Tuesday 10 January 2023 and comprise a half day of immersive learning activities in small classroom settings and a 1:2:1 interview . The Session will contain elements our academic team will use to learn about character, curiosity and ‘teachability’. We will ensure appropriate adjustments are made for those with a learning difference.
We know that you will have many things to consider when choosing a secondary school, we have created a series of videos and frequently asked questions and hope that we have answered all your questions via the links and below.
