Grammar schools in Buckinghamshire

Catchment areas, maps and 11+ guidance for every grammar school in Bucks

There are 13 state grammar schools in Buckinghamshire. Their admissions rules differ: some use a priority area or distance, while others reserve places by test score. Open a school page for its recorded rules, then check the school's current policy before applying.

In Buckinghamshire the 11+ is a qualification, not a ranking. A Secondary Transfer Test Score of 121 or above qualifies a child for grammar school, but a higher score gives no extra admissions priority. That is why every Bucks grammar is a catchment school: once a child qualifies, places are decided by catchment, home-to-school distance and siblings, not by test score. See the full Bucks Transfer Test guide.

What 11+ test do Buckinghamshire grammar schools use?+
Tests can differ between schools. Each school page names the test recorded in our data; confirm the current test and registration route with the school or consortium.
Does a higher score get you into a Buckinghamshire grammar school?+
No. In Buckinghamshire 121 is a qualifying mark, not a ranking, so scoring well above it does not improve your priority for a place. Once your child qualifies, admission is decided by each school's catchment, home-to-school distance and sibling rules.
Catchment and admissions details change every year. Always confirm the current catchment, distances and test arrangements directly with each school and your local authority.
