Grammar Schools in Torbay

Torbay's three grammar schools use GL Assessment papers in English and maths, with a shared arrangement so that one sitting counts across the Torbay selective schools.

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 Torbay need to know

  • Torquay Girls' Grammar and Churston Ferrers both name GL Assessment directly. Torquay Boys' Grammar gives the same date and links GL familiarisation material but does not name the provider in its policy.
