Wallington High School for Girls: 11+ admissions for 2027 and 2028
Wallington High School for Girls admits girls into Year 7 through a two-stage process shared with Nonsuch High School for Girls: the Sutton Selective Eligibility Test (SET), then the Nonsuch and Wallington Second Stage Entrance Examination (NWSSEE).

Entry points and deadlines
Girls register once, in Year 5, for the SET, which covers six Sutton schools.
Girls who pass the SET sit both parts of the NWSSEE; passing makes them eligible to name Wallington (and Nonsuch) on the council application.
Pupil Premium girls can score up to 20% below the standardised pass mark for the SET and the NWSSEE maths and English papers.
SET registration for September 2028 entry opens on 1 May 2027; the open evening for current Year 5 is on Tuesday 6 July 2027.
Testing
SET: two multiple-choice papers, maths and English, each 40 to 50 minutes, with no verbal or non-verbal reasoning. The pass mark is set after marking.
NWSSEE: the joint second-stage exam for Nonsuch and Wallington, in maths and English, sat in late September.
The school says the tests are broadly based on the Key Stage 2 curriculum and that tutoring isn't necessary.
