If you have any comments on the policy, please send them to this email address office@cheshamgrammar.org and use 'Admissions Policy 2025' as the subject so that these can be passed on to the Chair of Trustees.
11+ admissions
Applications for admission to the school at the start of Year 7 are handled by Buckinghamshire Council as part of its co-ordinated admissions scheme. If you are interested in making an application, please visit the relevant pages of Buckinghamshire Council's website here.
