28 places are available at 13+ to join the pupils moving up from Martineau’s House. Places are offered on the basis of 13+ test, interview and school report. The test is during the Spring Term and papers are set in English, Maths, Modern Foreign Language, Science and Verbal Reasoning. If Aldenham School is the only choice, an early offer may be made, subject to a satisfactory interview and school report. The test would be sat in the normal way.

The curriculum at 13+ (Yr 9) equips pupils with the knowledge, skills and understanding for them to make a reasoned choice of subjects for GCSE. All pupils benefit from an extensive PSHE programme that seeks to maximise potential and equip them with the appropriate skills for life both within and beyond school.
