Thanks very much for the video .. I was sometimes confused between GCSE and A level exams .. Now understood GCSE exam = Year 11 A Level exam = year 13..
Not very evident when you see it in wiki.. please continue your good work !!
Hi Anand, lots of good information but this post was really just focused on getting into grammar school. I think you could have expanded on the differences in the 3 types of schools and the pros and cons for all. Remember there are bursaries available for private schools and some of your viewers may be interested in actually applying for these schools. Perhaps look at an update on this video with further information on this sector. Uk is unfortunately still very driven by class and a private education opens up further opportunities for children that perhaps the state system can’t. Things are of course changing but still slowly.

When he says words ending with t ... For example.... "Excellent" ( he spits out a literal 💣 instead of 't' )
😢🎉🎉
Very informative for a person like me who has no prior information of UK education system. Thanks for the minor details.
Hi, thank you so much for explaining this clearly. Is there a way to find out how large is the catchment area for a grammar school . And also is there more preference based on distance within the catchment ?
Hey Anand, Excellent Content and lot of useful information,, keep up the good work mate!
Thank you 🙏🏻 for this information. As a parent I now have an idea how this education system works. I didn't know the difference between Grammer school and State School syllabus and which will be better for my child. In greater Manchester there aren't many Grammer schools too.
How much I wish that I got to see this video a month before when I was going crazy on researching this as a newbie to uk and a mom of a 5th grader.. thank you for this video and I am writing a email to u , please reply when u get time .
Sure Angeline, send me a mail and will answer as best as I can 👍

I am living in London since 2yrs and im planning to bring my family here this Sep or Oct. My kids are 13 and 10 yrs old and looking for some information around how to get admissions for them in a school in London.
Hi, I know it’s a very long time u have put this comment. My kids are of the same age now. Can u please share ur experience
Thanks a lot for the elaborate explanation,great help👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏻
what is the chance to get into grammar schools in kent for children outside county( we live in horsham)
Great video Anand! 🙏🏾
Very useful information 🙏🏻
I needed advice from someone knowledgeable like you. For a naturally bright child who has one parent’s full time and support at home(in academics as well), what kind of tuition would be the best?
I am in Berkshire and aiming for the schools here and in Buckinghamshire.
Daughter is in year4 right now and the admissions for AE tuition centre for year5 will be open soon.
Do you think small coaching Center would be better for her than AE? Also I was also toying with the idea of taking the training from home as they have this option too. They send the material by post, give us video lessons and zoom meetings. What would be the odds against this scenario? Please could you advise?
Many many thanks 🙏🏻
Plz one question ..? ..lf there is no difference between curriculm then why do people give so much prefrence to the grammar schools
Hi, we are in Glasgow Scotland and thinking to move to London for Grammer school. My daughter turning 9 in February. So is it feasible to go for a grammer school? In Scotland we can go for private but they are costly.

Very informative video!
What is the situation of the child who lives overseas (in my case India) will have to do if we miss the proper admission procedure or timings, like if we relocate to UK inbetween the academic year?
Thank you. it was very informative and enlightening 🙏
Hello I like to say that you have done a fantastic explanation on this subject however I would prefer to send my children to a private school if I can afford it as state schools are badly run and educational standards are quite low compared to asia.
Is necessary coating or we can do at home as well?
Nice bro, also please do video on corona situation in UK, many countries are criticising UK approach and Boris’s view

Is there any g school in London that don’t count cathment area.
We live Newham so we don’t have any g school so how we can make choice to get any gram school.
Nice video: one query sir.. when should we move towards grammar school catchment area.. before writing the 11+ or after knowing in which school he got admission!?
Very good informative video
How does catchment work. Example for tiffins is it useless trying if you are outside priority area.. Which are the best areas to be in to cover multiple grammar schools at same time
Thanks for nice explanation of the topic 👏
Hello.... I am a new viewer.... we are soon travelling to UK... I am in class 8 in India.... please tell in which ks/year will I get the admission and what type of test will be taken.....
thank you... I’ll be waiting for the answer
Thanks for the video. It was very informative. I am planning to move to UK with my 12 year old son who has studied in India till now. Can you give me any guidance as to how to go about for an admission in a Grammar school in Birmingham? Also will appreciate any guidance as to how to get him prepared for the entrance exam if he is eligible. Please help
Sweta if he is already 12 years old, then he would have passed the eligibility to join grammar schools / write 11+ for now. 11+ is written before they are 11. He will join year 8 in a state school directly to begin with. There are some grammar schools that take admission if they have availability in Year 9 and later depending on performance in year 8 from a state school sometimes.
Good Explanation and very detailed.can I know what areas does cover in Buckinghamshire ex..milton keynes
Thanks sir. This video is very well explained in detailed very informative.👍
Can a child take the 11plus exams from a different county without actually moving.is it possible to move after they have qualified?
Hi Anand, My Daughter is doing her year 2. In May month she has to do SAT exam. Is this exam mark reflect anywhere? Do I need to give much practice ? All your videos are good and casual talk. Much appreciated your dedication 👍 came to know JustPark app after seeing your video. Immediately I rented out my garage and getting £110 per month . Thanks a lot 😊
Does all grammar school follow catchment criteria? If not, which all school does and which area should I shift for my boy?
Excellent.....very good description...and what are the coaching class fees and what are the secondary school fees?
State schools and Grammar schools are free Krishnendu. No Fees. Private Schools can be up to 2000 £ per month for 7 years. The coaching class fees for eleven plus are around 200 to 300 £ per month for one year.

Very Informative but as exam bodies aim to make the tests more tutor proof are Kent schools doing an online test now because that is important to know.
Very informative

Hi. My daughter is 2year old now and v r currently in the UK. I wanted to know in which age should u apply for reception? Is it 3 or 4? Bcz in some videos i saw it is reception at age 4 and in urs its written as age5. So pls clarify!
And also in the uk govt website, I saw that v hv to apply at least a year back toget a place in the reception for the next year.
So can u pls clarify regarding this?
Do they take you back because of age?
Thank you for all the information u provided. I would appreciate if u help me with few queries of my own. I have come to uk(kent) very recently, a month back. My son will go to primary school (year5) from next week. Unfortunately, he will only get few months to attend yr5 & then wud start his yr6. Do u think this time is sufficient for a child who has come from india, given the fact that he has a lot to get accustomed to in this educational curriculum.
Thanks Anna very informative.
Thank you. So much informative.
Can we call the school authority to check whether we have can keep some hope
Dear Anand ji. Very well explained video. Thank you for that. Can you please let me know about the grammar school for primary school? My son is six and we are moving to UK for next academic year. While we were going through the schools for him, we came across this particular school in Stockport. It would be very helpful if you can give information and your views in this regard. Thank you.
Hi Deepika, best wishes for your move to UK. As far as I know there is no concept of grammar school for Primary Schools. I have done a comprehensive video on primary schools in UK. You can check most of the answers to your questions on that here - ruclips.net/video/Ilt9eS-cwOM/видео.html
@@AnandChennai Thank you very much!
Hi Anand , why not another video on this subject 😅 a casual one probably
Hi..we from Malaysia..we planning to mindgrad to uk next year 2025.. questions is my kids age 16 next year.. Is she able enter Grammar school
Hi sir planning come to uk which county is good for grammar school in Buckinghamshire Aylesbury or Buckingham please let me know waiting for your reply .
Great Information...We are planning to move to UK with family trying for Global Talent Visa, my daughter will be completing 10th here CBSE this year, will it be very difficult to get admission in A level schools, can you please help us in getting information.
She wouldn't be getting into a grammar school but a normal state school (which are also good schools) . Like primary schools the council has a responsibility to get you a secondary school place somewhere. But it may be difficult to get a school near your place to begin with. Some councils like ours (Bucks) have got a good updated list of secondary schools with places that you can find online. So best is to find a school that has availability and move closer to that school . See this link for bucks as an example - www.buckscc.gov.uk/services/education/school-admissions/changing-school-in-year/check-for-school-places/list-of-school-vacancies/
Thanks Anand, what i understand is my daughter can get into state school after 10th here from India into A level schools, which is like intermediate here.
HI, i will be moving to London in Jan and I have 12 years son ( Jan 2010),will he be eligible for Year 7th or 8th yea as per his DOB) and one more concern s will he get admission into state school and worried if he can adjust the schools over theri)

Hello sir ,my mom has got a visa in uk and she wants me to reach there before 18, and wants to continue my study there currently i am studing in 11 cbse with 10th pass certificate, what course should i take please respond sir........
Good Afternoon ,Sir please tell me details about Jersey island visa
very helpful video but i have a question........can we apply for two different county grammar school..........because we are living on the border of two county.............so any one of these two county schools is suitable for us............... or it entirely depends on which council we're paying our council tax
You can apply for multiple counties and write exams for multiple counties too. My daughter had written the exam for Girls grammar school in Reading and in Buckinghamshire. I know people who had written in Berks , Bucks and also London grammar schools.
@@AnandChennai Thank you so much for your prompt response. I still have a small doubt. Appreciate if you can offer some help on this.
My son has already appeared for Birmingham Grammar Schools entrance test and I'm hopeful he might get a qualifying score there. However, my local council’s grammar school test is still awaited.
But while trying to fill up the school preference form through Birmingham City Council (which is not my local council) it inquires whether we have our council tax under them. Otherwise, it doesn't allow us to navigate further.
So my question here is if it's possible to take admission in Birmingham Grammar schools just in case I find my son fell short of a qualifying score in my local council.
Anna by any chance can I contact you?
Hi..Thank you for this valuable information...just wanted to check if these grammar schools exams are eligible for kids aged only 11 years or can an older aged child do these grammar school entrance exams..I am asking because we are planning to relocate to UK this year and my elder child is 14 years old so can she do these exams to get into a grammar school
There is a process called 12 plus and 13 plus. But this is extremely strict and rare to go into year 8 and year 9. In the entire Bucks county only one person was admitted for 12 plus and no one for 13 plus as you can see here - www.buckinghamshire.gov.uk/schools-and-learning/schools-index/school-admissions/apply-for-a-late-transfer-grammar-school-test/
Then there is A Levels called Sixth Form entry in Year 12 & 13 after GCSE - this is around 20 per school I think, but with exceptional grades and only if Students from that grammar school are moving out to somewhere else.

Please can u send me some preparation materials for the 11 plus exam
Where in UK can I get a place for £150k?
🙏🏻 Thank you sir
Hi, My son is in 9th class (CBSE) and we are shifting to UK in the month of April. Would he adjust the school in th Uk? And how to get admission in class 10? Which school is better as per your video? Please co operate for the same.Thanks in advance.
Hello are you Maharashtriyan?
Hi, good afternoon, thanks for the information. still I have some doubts, How can I contact you please. I am relocating to UK
Useful video
We r living in Ilford . My son is now studying year 5 so, we are moving to county only in year of 6 . We will apply for the exam before June to Hertfordshire county from Ilford.
Is this way is correct?
Please check the cut off dates for moves. Some schools have a cut off date for the county move or catchment move as April and some have October.
@@AnandChennai
Thank you Anna
Can you please put video on A level
Hair my daughter started in grammar school but she doesn't like it there because no friends and the distance from home , is it a good decision to move her from there to a state school nearby ?
Ultimately it is the kid's happiness and comfort that is very important. If she continues in a grammar school and doesn't perform well in her A levels, then there is no point. On the contrary if she moves to a good state school and gets better grades in her A levels then she will get a good university. School is just a vehicle to get to the destination and the Enjoying the travel and Safely getting to the destination is the key. Beyond a point the brand name of the bus we travel in doesn't matter. That is my personal opinion Annipunnam.
Thank you
Sir please tell me details about Jersey island visa process in tamil
talk about syllabus in secondary school
Sir, we are moving to UK and my daughter is 12yrs. Please explain what are her chances of getting into a grammar school. Thank you
@CRAZY ONE DIRECTION FAN!!!!!! hi
Pls how do.i get online materials to begin preparation for my 11plus ..
thanks for this information
Hi, thanks for the video, I found it super helpful. How about the chance of the kids who live in the county like Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire to get into Grammar School in Buckinghamshire?
They can write the grammar school exams by applying to write specifically out of county. But the preference goes to in county kids first. For e.g. Dr Challoners High School - DCHS - is in Little Chalfont Buckinghamshire - literally on the borders of Hertfordshire - There are people who live 1 mile away from the school but on the Hertfordshire side and preference is given to kids who live 7 miles away in Chalfont St Peter for e.g. than those kids in Hertfordshire who are 7 times closer to the school and yet scored the same marks. But that doesn't mean no one gets in, because of that there are a few kids who get admission to the School from Hertfordshire due to the proximity and when they have score more marks and all kids in bucks with pass marks are allocated a place.
Thanks for explaining my two children pass the exam for tiffin boys and Tiffen girls
Congratulations Nijrab & best wishes to your kids 👍
Thank you brother.
👍🙂
What's your mail id sir,have some questions about 11+
ple explain us about kent test too
Do u write exam before you start school in uk ?
Not sure if you watched it fully. This 11+ is an optional exam you write when moving from Year 6 (Primary) to Year 7 (Secondary) for certain selective school choices. For primary school there is no exam to join or even in the school while studying. Except for the optional 11+ there is no real exam till Year 11 (16 years age) - GCSE
