11+results & future schools

Leavers’ Destinations 2026

Enormous congratulations to our Year 6 pupils who have, again, have achieved fantastic 11+ results.   As well as being offered places at a wide range of senior schools, including some of the most academically selective locally, The Mall pupils have also been awarded numerous scholarships.

Future destinations at 11+

In 2026, Mall pupils were offered 90 places altogether. 80% of pupils received at least two senior school offers with nearly half (48%) of pupils offered places at three or more schools. 41% of pupils sitting independent senior school exams have been awarded academic, music, art or sports scholarships from schools including:

• Halliford School
• Hampton School
• King’s College School, Wimbledon
• Reed’s School
• St James School
• Tiffin Grammar

11+ Exam Preparation

The Mall has an enviable track record in preparing pupils for successful entry to senior schools in the high6y competitive London market. In 2025, our Year 6 pupils were offered 90 places at highly academically selective schools including Halliford, Hampton, Kingston Grammar School, St James, Tiffin and Ibstock.

We help pupils prepare for 11+ exams on paper and on screen, encouraging regular use of online revision to support pupils with navigating computer systems similar to the ones used in 11+ exams. In the autumn term of Year 6, every child in the year group practices school interviews with the senior leadership team. It is an encouraging, fun experience and helps them to prepare well.

Finding the right school for your child

There is no such thing as the right school, only the right school for the individual child. We work with parents to identify possible schools for their child and the Headmaster will begin discussions from Year 4.  Parents are invited to a series of future schools events where they learn about the application and entrance process, as well as how the school supports them and their children.

Parents can meet admissions and senior staff from a wide range of independent senior schools at our annual senior school fair in the spring term.

Our overall aim is to prepare pupils academically and socially so they can move on confidently to their next school and flourish.

Parent praise for the transition process

Parents value the support and guidance that they and their children receive from the school throughout the 11+ process.
