Independent School Entrance Exam Results from 1999 to 2010

Record of entrance exam results for places at Independent Schools:

Every year we have some Lessons in the Post pupils taking selection exams for places at fee-paying independent schools. Many of these independent schools are in parts of the country where there are no state grammar schools.

In the last 12 years every one of our pupils has succeeded in gaining a place at one or more of the independent schools for which they have applied – a 100% success rate.

About 30% of the places gained at independent school have come with the offer of a scholarship. Some of these scholarship offers have meant an annual saving on school fees of 50% or over.

Since 1999, Lessons in the Post pupils have been offered places at the following independent schools:
