St George’s School, Edinburgh, Primary 1 and S1 Entrance Assessments

Applications are invited for entrance assessments to P1 and S1 for entry in August 2020.



Primary 1 Entrance Assessment (play morning) Saturday 11 January

S1 Entrance Assessments Tuesday 21 and 28 January


P1 girls are assessed as a group and enjoy different activities within the P1 classrooms where teachers can observe them as they play.


S1 girls sit formal assessment papers, have an interview with a senior member of teaching staff, and experience a ‘taster’ afternoon of activities and lessons with our pupils so they can get a good feel for the school.


For S1 entry the girls sit papers in Mathematics, English writing and non-verbal/verbal reasoning. Watch our video clip at http://bit.ly/2ie1neJ to find out what to expect on the day.


Entrance assessments for all other year groups can be arranged on an individual basis. We currently have a limited number of spaces for most year groups.


St George’s offers financial support for families through means-tested bursaries of up to 100% remission of fees.


Applications for bursaries should be submitted by the 10 January 2020 to Jeremy Harper, Business Director, E: jeh@stge.org.uk.

Full details are available from our admissions department T: 0131 311 8008, admissions@stge.org.uk and on our website www.stge.org.uk.
