11 Plus and Independent school entrance exams can be quite a minefield for both parents and children. Although the majority of grammar schools in Essex use the CSSE test format, there are some other types of exams used in other schools.

Independent schools, including New Hall, Felsted and Brentwood School all have their own entrance exams.
