Cumbria
There is just one grammar school in the Cumbria region and that is the Queen Elizabeth Grammar School in Penrith.
​
The parents of children wishing for their child to sit the 11+ for Queen Elizabeth's must complete the relevant form directly with the school. After receiving their child's results they then need to apply for a place at the school via Cumbria Council.
There are approximately 120 places available in year 7. Often more than twice this number sit the 11+ entrance exams.
​
Test Content
