Lambrook School 7 Plus (7+) Exam Guide

About Lambrook School

Lambrook School is a co-educational school with flexi-boarding in Bracknell, Berkshire. Year 3 is one of the school’s most usual points of entry, alongside Reception, Year 4 and occasional places into Year 7.

Demand is real rather than a formality: the school says plainly that because of the number of applicants for the limited spaces available, not every child can be offered a place.

Admissions information for 2027 entry to Lambrook School at 7 Plus (7+)

Assessment for Year 3 starts in January of the year before entry, but Lambrook doesn’t publish a single fixed date, so confirm the current cycle’s timing with admissions once you’ve registered. Given the school’s own note on demand outstripping places, registering early is genuinely worth doing rather than a formality.

Several of the practical details here, including the exact acceptance deposit and sibling policy, aren’t published on the pages available, so build them into your first call to admissions.

How can I register my child for the 7 Plus (7+) assessment at Lambrook School?

Register through lambrookschool.co.uk. The £300 fee covers any year group you might apply for from Nursery to Year 8, so it’s a one-off cost rather than something you pay again for a later sibling or a different entry point.

What is the 7 Plus (7+) assessment format at Lambrook School?

The school describes its assessment as looking at academic ability alongside wider interests, character and general behaviour, but doesn’t publish an exact subject-by-subject breakdown of the papers used for Year 3 entry. Confirm the detail with admissions so you know what to expect.

With the specifics unconfirmed, the safest preparation is the core that underpins every 7+ assessment: comfortable Year 2 English and maths, alongside the everyday confidence and sociability that a character-and-behaviour assessment is designed to notice.
