Places at grammar schools in Birmingham – entry to other Years

Year 7 (first term)

If a vacancy arises at any grammar school during the first term of Year 7, the waiting list from March of that year will be used, and the place will be offered following the school's admission criteria.

Years 7 to 11 (in-year admissions)

At any point from January, after the pupil starts Year 7, parents may apply for a place at any grammar school by contacting the school directly.

In-year vacancies normally only become available if a current pupil leaves the school. If a vacancy arises, applicants on the waiting list will be invited to take a test at the school.

Sixth Form

Each grammar school in Birmingham welcomes applications for places in their Sixth Form. Contact the school you are interested in for further information or visit the school's website.
