Alleyn's School
Admissions reality
How competitive entry really is, what scores mean, and where the waiting-list picture is strong enough to trust.
Full exam briefCompetition trend intelligence
Legacy admissions context characterises the indicative competitive level as stable, but this is not based on an official published cutoff.
ClassAce estimate, not official data
Score banding
11+Offer score trend
Historical trend data is not yet strong enough to show confidently.
Waiting list intelligence
No official waiting-list movement data located in the extracted evidence.
Because no official offer-score threshold is published, waiting-list outcomes are not reducible to a single marks line.
Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
There is no officially published 11+ pass mark.
Qualifying as selective-eligible is only the first hurdle. Final allocation depends on oversubscription criteria, and distance from the school is frequently the deciding factor.
A strong exam alone may not be enough; school report and later-stage assessment matter.
Parents often assume the highest scorers get priority. In practice, once a child meets the selective threshold, proximity to the school can matter more than raw score.
Published sample papers do not imply a simple standardised threshold.
This means there's no single pass mark to aim for. Preparation should focus on performing strongly across all areas rather than targeting a specific number.
