Admissions information for 2027 entry to More House at 11 Plus (11+)

The school strongly recommends that prospective students and their parents attend one of More House’s open events. More House’s next open events will take place in June 2026. You can book and find out more information about these events on the More House website. Please ensure you book these open events early, as places tend to fill up quickly.

This will give you and your child the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the facilities, meet the staff, and ensure More House is the right choice for you. 

More House is an academically selective school and every place is competitively sought after. There are three parts to the More House 11+ admissions process: 

  • School Reference: a confidential reference from your daughter’s current Headteacher 
  • Assessment: testing your daughter’s cognitive ability, analysis, synthesis, problem-solving, creative and critical thinking 
  • Interview: face-to-face interview to explore their current skill set and intellectual ability 

More House is part of the London 11+ Consortium and has adopted a coordinated approach to the 11+ examination with these other schools. When you apply to More House, you must inform them of where your daughter will sit the exam. Your daughter can sit the exam in her current school, if they are able to host it, or any of the London 11+ Consortium Schools that you have applied to. 

The school does not value one part of the application process over another. The reference, examination, and interview are all considered equally important.

How can I register my child for the 11 Plus (11+) exam at More House?

To register your child for More House, you should download and complete the application form which can be found here. The registration fee is £150 and is non-refundable. The school also requires a passport-sized photo of the applicant and a copy of her birth certificate or passport. 

If you wish to apply for a bursary or scholarship (academic, music, art, drama, or sport) you can do this at any time before the registration deadline in November 2026. You can find out more information about how to apply for a scholarship or bursary here.

What is the 11 Plus (11+) entrance exam format for More House?

The entrance exam is 100 minutes long and it is split into five distinct sections: 

  • Maths: (20 minutes) based on the National Curriculum for Year 5 & will not test anything on the Year 6 curriculum 
  • Non-verbal reasoning: (10 minutes) assessment of the candidate’s ability to identify patterns & think logically 
  • English comprehension: (20 minutes) piece of fiction, written especially for the Consortium exams, no extended writing is required 
  • Verbal reasoning: (10 minutes) assessment of a candidate’s ability to identify the correct use of standard English in context 
  • Break: (30 minutes) 
  • Puzzles and problem-solving: (15 minutes) tests the ability of candidates to use words & numbers to solve multi-step problems 
  • Creative comprehension: (25 minutes) candidates have to use information from a variety of different sources to answer questions 

The first part of the test, up to the break, is adaptive. This means the questions are tailored to the child’s performance. 

The second part is non-adaptive, meaning all the candidates will have the same questions. The English comprehension passage will also be the same for all candidates, but the questions will be adaptive.
