Fair Banding Test
In addition to this, Tudor Grange Academy Worcester also requires potential applicants to complete a Fair Banding form. As part of our admissions criteria and to be considered for admission to the Academy, all applicants must have sat a Fair Banding test. This also applies to the siblings already attending the school. The closing date for receipt of the Fair Banding form by the Academy is 31 October. We will make contact with you when dates have been confirmed.
The test is a multiple choice style test based on non‐verbal reasoning. The test takes about an hour which includes 30 minutes of testing, plus explanations. The test is a not a pass or fail test. Scores are used to place students in bands and are not used beyond the banding process or for setting upon entry to the Academy. Looked After Children and those with a Statement of Special Educational Needs or an EHCP do not need to sit the test to be allocated a place at Tudor Grange Academy.
