About the school
“Since September 2016, pupils seeking a place at Highsted Grammar School have been able to take an additional, optional test at the school in September. A selective assessment through the Highsted Test will have equal status for a place in Year 7 as a pass in the Kent Test.”
Established school - open since before 2010. Became an academy in October 2010, continuing the school that was already there.
