What is the Bexley 11+ Consortium?

The four grammar schools in Bexley form a partnership called the Bexley 11+ Consortium. They all use the same Bexley Selection Test, which means your child only needs to sit one exam for any of these schools:

• Beths Grammar School (boys)

• Chislehurst & Sidcup Grammar School (co-educational)

• Bexley Grammar School (co-educational)

• Townley Grammar School (girls)

How to Register for Bexley Grammar Schools

To sign up for the Bexley Selection Test, you will need to complete an online application form through the Bexley council’s website.

In addition to this, you must fill out a Common Application Form for your local council and include your chosen schools.

Many Bexley primary schools will hold the Bexley Selection Test on their own sites. If your child goes to a school outside of the Bexley local authority, they may be invited to sit the test at a different test centre.
