13+ Entry
Welcome to 13+ Entry
We know that choosing the right school for your child can often be confusing and time consuming, so we try to make the process here at The Oratory as enjoyable and straightforward as possible.
Pupils enter the school either at 13+ through ISEB Common Entrance sat at the applicant's Prep School or internally set Scholarship Exams sat at The Oratory, both of which are taken in Year 8. Prior to this, once registered, applicants will be required to sit the ISEB Pre-Test whilst in Year 6 at their Prep School. Following an interview with the Head they will be offered a place at this stage, subject to Common Entrance.
