London Brookes College is a trusted test centre for ISEB Exams. The ISEB Board provides Common Entrance examination papers at 11+ and 13+.
Common Entrance at 11+
Pupils sit the Common Entrance examination at 11+ when they are in Year 6, mainly for entrance to senior independent girls’ schools. There are two examination sessions each year, in November and January. Most girls sit the examination in January. They take papers in English, Mathematics and Science.
Common Entrance at 13+
The 13+ Common Entrance examination is strongly supported by many of the top prep and independent senior schools in the UK. Its rigorous syllabuses and breadth of subjects provide a strong academic focus for pupils in Years 7 and 8 and an excellent preparation for GCSEs. It offers the following benefits:
- High academic standards and rigorous syllabuses
- Senior schools know what to expect
- Academic breadth across 11 subjects, many of which will be continued at senior school
- Provides a trusted, well-known focus for pupils in stand-alone prep schools in years 7 and 8
- There is compelling evidence that formal examinations lead to high standards
- Favourable comparison with state sector, where Years 7 and 8 are part of senior school
- Not using Common Entrance likely to lead to narrowing of curriculum
- Independent school parents are familiar with, and trust, Common Entrance
Pupils sit the Common Entrance examination at 13+ when they are in Year 8. There are three examination sessions each year, in November, January and May/June.
