Grammar Schools in Barnet

Barnet has no borough-wide consortium. Its three selective schools each run their own admissions process and their own test, so applying to more than one means separate registrations and separate sittings.

Test Individual school entrance tests
Provider (2027 entry) GL Assessment (Henrietta Barnett); not disclosed (others)
Test date September 2026, varies by school
Registration Varies — St Michael's closed 7 July 2026
