The school admits the majority of its Main School population in Year 7, based on a banding assessment undertaken in Year 6. There is a very little movement in the school population thereafter and currently, the school is full.
The first stage in the admissions process is to Register for the banding assessment.
Music applicants should follow the instructions at the end of the banding assessment registration.
Each open event will include a tour of the school and a talk by the Headteacher as well as an opportunity to ask questions about the admissions process. There is no need to register for the open events.
The assessments are to ensure we have a mixed ability intake every year. The banding assessment is set and marked by GL Assessment and is a cognitive test. It is only used for admissions purposes. The results are not used in school after enrolment. We cannot use data from your child's primary school as this is not available when places are offered.
The bands often bear little or no relation to your child’s performance at school. They are cognitive processing tests. No extra time or special arrangements are given. The allocation to a band by the GL assessment is regarded by the Governors as final.

Be advised that based on previous decisions, Governors did not agree the following as an exceptional medical or social need:
If you feel that one of these examples should be considered you can still apply but you would be expected to demonstrate how this has a significant impact on your child and why Camden School for Girls in particular can meet your child's need.
