Question for mums who've taught in prep schools

I'm a recently ex. secondary teacher and have just seen an advert for a post teaching year 5 in my local prep. school. The ad. contains the following:
'Applications are invited from experienced teachers who are conversant with the entrance exams of the Grammar School System.'
Would they consider me without knowledge of Grammar school exams, if other experience was relevant. is it something I could easily swot up on?
Thanks for reading.
