Introduction to Tiffin Girls’ School Admissions

The Tiffin Girls’ School has a significant intake of girls at 11+, with about 180 students joining at this point.

As an over-subscribed state school, The Tiffin Girls’ School publishes its admissions number two years in advance. Dates for registration, using local authority guidelines, are strict. An additional form, a Supplementary Information Form (SIF) must be submitted alongside the application, and there is a Designated Area (postcodes) in which almost all current pupils live. Please ask your tutor if you need any help with this!

Registration

The deadline for this year’s SIF (Supplementary Information Form) for The Tiffin Girls’ School is 1st September 2025. Applications made after the deadline will not be accepted. 

Examinations

The key to 11+ entry to The Tiffin Girls’ School is careful preparation for each stage of the entry process. Places are awarded on the basis of performance in a two-stage process. The first stage is examinations in English and Maths, marked by computer. Examinations take place on Thursday 2nd and Friday 3rd October 2025 for Year 6 girls (the school year before admission), when students will be 10 or 11 years old. Following this, successful candidates are invited to a second-stage series of written examinations in English and Maths (marked by hand), which will take place in November 2025. Offers are then sent out on the basis of performance at both stages, with strict admissions criteria published on the school website.
