About Townley Grammar School:

Townley Grammar school is a selective girls' academy. Year 7 admissions open on 15th May 2023, offering 210 places. The Bexley Selection Test is the chosen exam format, with the date falling between 9th–14th September 2023. Results are age-standardised and the top 180 scoring children are considered for placement.

Townley Grammar School utilises the same entrance examination as the three other schools in the London Borough of Bexley, namely Bexley Grammar School, Beths Grammar and Chislehurst & Sidcup Grammar. As a result, your child only has to sit for a single examination, referred to as the Bexley Selection Test, to be considered for admission to any of these schools.

Please note that Townley Grammar may not guarantee admission based on test scores alone due to high demand and limited seats. Factors considered for admission into Townley Grammar School are ordered as follows:

1. Looked-after children

2. Girls who are recipients of free school meals and have attained the required score, arranged according to their proximity to the school.

3. Girls who rank among the top 180 performers in the Selection Test.

4. Girls who have a brother or sister enrolled in a school that falls under the Odyssey Trust for Education, which includes Townley Grammar and King Henry School.

5. Children whose parent has been a member of the school's staff for at least two years

6. Children residing nearest to the school are considered, irrespective of their Selection Test score.
