Navigating Entry into Westminster School



Westminster Schools is a coeducational day and boarding school - open to boys from the age of 13 and girls from the age of 16. Westminster is one of the most prestigious schools in the UK and has one of the highest Oxbridge acceptance rates.

Gaining a place at this school is very competitive, and therefore it is suggested to submit your child’s application for 13+ Entry, at least four years prior. Registration is a non-refundable fee of £160 and needs to be completed by the end of Year 5.

Families are encouraged to attend an Open Day to provide a chance to meet current students and staff.

Students are required to sit the ISEB Common Pretest Exam in October/November. If successful, they’ll be invited for an interview in January/February, which includes some additional tests in English and Maths.

Scholarships are also offered by the school for pupils that show potential in academics or music.
