Admissions Visits to the school We encourage prospective parents to arrange to visit the school, meet pupils and staff, and hear a talk from the Head Mistress, or the Head of the Junior School, before their daughter sits the entrance assessment. Please visit our website www.lehs.org.uk for details of our Open Events for 7+, 11+ and 16+ entry in September 2022. Registration Applications for admission should be made on the appropriate form (which can be found on our website). Applications are made during the year prior to the proposed year of admission to the school. Occasional vacancies may also occur in intermediate age groups, and the same arrangements apply. Therefore, for entry in September 2022, applications should be submitted during 2021 and before the relevant deadline for applications.
Entry procedure All applicants for entry to the school must sit an entrance assessment, and may also be interviewed or invited to participate in an activity session (7+ entry). Entry is competitive. At 7+, the entrance assessment includes Mathematics and English. For 2022 entry, at 11+ there are verbal and non-verbal reasoning papers and a problem solving paper.
