There are a number of changes being made to the arrangements for pupils to take the selection test (11+) to gain entry to grammar schools in Southend and to the other schools in the Borough who offer selective school places. All of the schools  that admit pupils as a result of the 11+ testing arrangements are holding open evenings during the summer term 2012 for year 5 pupils and their parents at which the new arrangements will be further explained. Details of these meetings can be found using the link below
