Celebrating Our Year 6 Leavers: Our 2026 Results

Thursday 9th July 2026

As we say goodbye to our wonderful Year 6 leavers, we are delighted to celebrate the exceptional destinations they have earned this year – results that once again confirm our position as the leading academic prep school in Tunbridge Wells.

11+ Success: 86% Awarded Grammar School Places

We are thrilled to announce that an outstanding 86% of our pupils who sat the 11+ this year have been awarded a grammar school place – a truly remarkable achievement that reflects the dedication of our pupils, the support of their families and the expert teaching they receive throughout their time with us.

Even more impressively, 56% of our leavers achieved a score of 380 or above, a benchmark that opens the door to the country’s most super-selective grammar schools. This level of success speaks volumes about the rigour and quality of our academic preparation.

A Perfect Record: 100% Scholarship Success

For another year running, we are proud to celebrate a 100% scholarship success rate. Every child who applied for a scholarship this year was awarded one, with our pupils securing places across a superb range of disciplines:

  • Sevenoaks School — Music Scholarship
  • Tonbridge School — Junior Foundation Award for All-Round Academic Excellence
  • Bethany School — Performing Arts Scholarship
  • Kent College — Sports Scholarship
  • Bethany School — Art Scholarship

This breadth of success – spanning academics, music, performing arts, sport and art – is a wonderful reflection of the well-rounded education and encouragement every child receives during their time at our school.

Academic Excellence, Proven Results

These results are more than just numbers – they are a testament to the hard work of our pupils, the expertise of our teaching staff from the beginning, and our unwavering commitment to helping every child reach their full potential.

Our success in entrance examinations doesn’t happen by chance. It is the result of years of specialist preparation, expert guidance, and a deep understanding of what grammar and independent schools are looking for.
