Is there an Edinburgh 11+?

Scotland does not have the English state grammar-school 11+ system. Most state-school places follow local-authority catchment and placing-request arrangements. Families searching for an “Edinburgh 11+” are often looking for independent-school entrance assessment practice.

What do Edinburgh independent schools assess?

Published formats vary by school. George Watson's College says Senior School applicants complete English and Maths papers. George Heriot's says S1 applicants complete a written English paper plus a computer-adaptive assessment with mathematics, vocabulary and reasoning modules.

Important: Homework Magic uses original questions and its own practice timings. Check each school's current admissions information because formats can change.
