Exam intelligence brief
Premium admissions analysis built from the current evidence stack
Al-Khair School
11+ exam brief for parents: how the process works, how competitive it really is, and what current evidence says about the score profile needed.
Editorial read
No official 11+ cut-off or pass mark was found. Official PDFs include sample entrance papers such as 'Year 6 to 7 Entrance Test' and 'AL – KHAIR SCHOOL ENTRANCE EXAMINATION', which support an assessment-based route, but not a published threshold.
Our view
Fee-paying Islamic school with assessment-plus-interview admissions and limited places.
Best suited to
Families seeking a Muslim faith-based environment with academic assessment and pastoral emphasis.
Watch out for

Plain-language interpretation
In plain English: the school does not publish a guaranteed pass mark. Use no official pass mark as a working guide, and read the competitive range band as the point where every extra mark matters.

Focus areas to prepare
Common misconceptions

- Offers are not based on test results alone; the school says it considers the whole child through assessment and interview.
- Applying later may reduce chances because the school says order of applications matters when places are limited.
- There is no officially published 11+ pass mark to aim for.
