In-Year Admission Exam for Year 8 at a Selective Grammar School

[tryingMyBest111]

Hi all,
My DS has been invited to sit an in-year admission test for a highly selective grammar school in South London for Year 8 entry.
I'd love to hear from any parents whose children have gone through this process. What was the test like? How challenging was it, and are there any resources you'd recommend for preparation?
Any advice, experiences, or tips would be hugely appreciated.
Thank you!

Ask the school for a sample paper.

And you need to name the school, otherwise tests and processes for School B might be completely different 🤷‍♀️

@FlowerSticker, thank you for your reply. It is St Olave's Grammar School in Orpington. Unfortunately, the school has not provided any sample papers or information about the format of the in-year admission test.

(Questions may come up in other ways, ie via interview)

This is a state school. Given the scrutiny and opprbrium generated back in 2017 over its illegal activities regarding progression from year 12 to year 13, I suspect that St Olaves would think very, very carefully before contravening the Admissions Code again by interviewing applicants for in-year (or any other) places
