Grammar Schools in Lincolnshire
The Lincolnshire Consortium of Grammar Schools runs a shared test across its 15 grammar schools, produced and marked by GL Assessment. One sitting covers every consortium school.
Where the official practice material is
GL Assessment
Free familiarisation booklets that show the question types, the timings and how the answer sheet works. GL do not release past papers, so anything sold as a GL past paper was written by somebody else.
What families in Lincolnshire need to know
- Two papers: verbal reasoning, then non-verbal and spatial reasoning, both multiple choice on answer sheets.
- Qualifying scores differ between schools even though the test is shared, so check the individual school's admissions policy for the score it requires.
- Registration deadlines are set by each school rather than centrally, and they vary by months. Missing one school's deadline does not affect the others.
