Please could someone tell me what the system is for transfering between Grammer Schools?
Thank you

Dear Cindy
If you moved to Bucks your child would have to sit 'our' Late transfer test [VR] From Bucks CC...
• If your child has already been through a
selection process with another council, or is
already at a grammar school in another
county, they will still need to be tested for
suitability for a Buckinghamshire grammar
school using our test.

If you are thinking of moving your son from a Kent grammar to a grammar school in a different county then the short answer to your question is that there is no set procedure. The fact that he is at a grammar school in one LEA does not mean that he is automatically eligible for a place at a grammar in another LEA.
Your best bet is probably to phone individual schools in the area(s) to which you are considering moving. Ask them whether they have any spaces in the relevant year group and, if so, what the application procedure entails.
