Entrance@11 (Year 7 entry)

On 7 November 2024 we welcome Year 6 children looking to join Cheltenham Prep School in Year 7 for our Entrance@11 day.

The purpose behind the day is to give children a tied place; a September start in Year 7 at the Prep School and a guaranteed place for Year 9 at College two years down the line, along with a chance to confirm their College House of choice. Giving children that security of knowing their next step is confirmed means that they can approach the important Upper School (Years 7 and 8) years at Cheltenham Prep School with confidence, rather than with uncertainty.

The external candidates who are applying to join Cheltenham Prep School for Year 7 are invited to join in with our Year 6 pupils for the Entrance@11 Day. The day is a balance between undertaking English and Maths assessments in a low pressure environment, before moving into a wide range of games and enjoyable challenges. A true Cheltonian is one who embraces all that is on offer at the school and therefore the day isn’t simply about academic assessments, but is about us getting to know the children as well as we possibly can.

For more information, or to register for our Entrance@11 programme, please e-mail prepadmissions@cheltenhamcollege.org or call 01242 265639.
