Have the grammar school test dates changed?
As a result of the Covid 19 pandemic and the ongoing closure of schools, many schools have agreed to postpone their assessment tests until a later date. Schools and councils hope that in some way this will assist current Year 5 children who have not been in school for several months now and may not be ready for assessment tests in September.
Some schools have announced their postponed test dates whilst others are still waiting for government guidelines regarding social distancing requirements at that point in time. If social distancing is still in place, schools will most likely have to run extra days in which to accommodate all applicants.
