Buckinghamshire STT

The Secondary Transfer Test has two multiple-choice papers: one assesses verbal skills, including comprehension, technical English and verbal reasoning; the other assesses maths and non-verbal skills, including spatial reasoning.

Preparation develops these skills alongside listening to instructions, accuracy and pacing.

Exam arrangements can change. Parents should check the official information for their child’s entry year and register separately. Jay’s Private Tuition is independent of the exam providers and schools; tuition does not guarantee a qualifying score or school place.
