GL Assessment (The Medway Test)
11 Plus Exam Pass Mark and Target Score
The pass mark for each year is decided after the tests have been marked.
The Medway Tests are designed to assess and select the top 26% of the children in the year group to go to a grammar school.
Other Exam information
Students will sit three 50-minute exams.
All tests are multiple-choice with a separate answer sheet.
The Medway Test is sat by children in year 6 at their own school if they go to a Medway school or in a Medway Test Centre if they go to schools outside of Medway.

Is Chatham Grammar part of a Consortium?
Chatham Grammar uses the Medway Test alongside other grammar schools in Medway.
Does Chatham Grammar have a catchment area?
Chatham Grammar does have a catchment area, which is based on distance from the school. However, entry to the school is based firstly on the scores achieved in the 11+ tests.
How Does Place Allocation Work?
Where qualifying applications exceed the number of places available, places will be allocated in the following order of priority:
Children in Local Authority Care or Previously in Local Authority Care.
Children with a sibling at any UKAT academy at the time of application or who will be still attending when the applicant is admitted.
Children, assessed as selective, of staff at any UKAT academy (where the member of staff has been employed for one year or more at the time at which the application for admission to the Academy is made and/or where the member of staff is recruited to fill a vacant post for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage).
