Full exam briefScore banding
11+Offer score trend
A non-official 2026 source says the Plymouth grammar schools will use Quest Assessments from September 2026, suggesting an admissions-process change rather than a published score trend.
Waiting list intelligence
Forum discussions show active parent tracking of scores and offers for Plymouth selective schools, but no official waiting-list movement figures were found.
Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Passing or sitting the 11+ is not the same as securing an offer.
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.
No clean official qualifying score or offer score was found in the supplied evidence.
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.
