Hi Jaykay
My daughter wants to sit exam for Girls High this year too. The Girls High own website is pretty useful www.wghs.org.uk. There is no information as yet on there as to which papers they will do this year as apparently it can change from year to year.Last Dec they sat verbal reasoning, non verbal reasoning, english and maths multiple choice. Hope this is useful to you.

Hi Jai
Yeah I'll let you know if I find out anything useful. Do you have a tutor for your daughter?. Everyone I speak to seems to say that alot of girls have tutors for 2 years before sitting the test!!!. My daughter hasn't got one but I don't know if its worth getting one because I don't want her to be at a disadvantage if everyone else has one.

The school prospectus contains details of the exam on a separate sheet. Contact the school if you don't have one already.
Basically, they recommend the nfer Nelson Practice papers (multiple choice variety pack). Each pack contains 4 tests - English, Verbal Reasoning, Maths and Non-Verbal Reasoning.
Only you can decide if your child needs outside tutoring as you know their ability and attitude to extra work. Lots of parents (myself included) tutor their children themselves. There is a mountain of helpful information and advice on this forum for anyone who chooses to do so.

tutors
This forum specifically does not allow participants to recommend tutors. If other children from your daughter's school have gone to local grammars it may be worth contacting their parents.
Don't forget, tutors are expensive (I heard of one charging £50 just to assess a child) and can't guarantee success.

past papers
You can purchase the recommended practice papers on line here in the Book Shop section. The school also sell them but I think only at their open days/evenings in Sep/Oct.
