Watford Grammar School for Girls paper availability

This page covers Year 7 11+ entry. Leap only labels practice as school-specific after the pathway and content have passed review; official sample papers, if any, remain on the school's own website.

General format summary

Watford Grammar School for Girls is listed by the South West Herts Consortium as using the Academic and Music Tests. The Academic Ability Test has two tests: Mathematics, based on the Key Stage 2 curriculum, and Verbal Reasoning; GL Assessment are the Verbal Reasoning and Mathematics test providers, and candidates answer on pre-printed/separate answer sheets that are machine-marked using OMR, with a short break between the tests. For the Music Criterion, the first stage is a 60-question written aural test lasting about 45 minutes, divided into Pitch, Melody, Rhythm and Texture; candidates successful in stage 1 may then sit a second-stage performance assessment of one self-chosen instrumental or vocal piece lasting no more than three minutes. This is the current route summary in Leap's accepted source model.
