Medway Test dates
The Medway Test (11+) is sat by children in year 6, before they go to secondary school.
Medway Test invitations
If you registered online your invitation is sent by email only.
If you registered in any other way, you will receive your invitation by post.
Please check your junk or spam folders if you have not received your invitation. If you have not received your invitation, email medwaytest@medway.gov.uk
Your invitation will tell you where and when your child is due to sit the test. Your child must only attend the test at their allocated venue and on their allocated day.
Multiple birth (twins/triplets etc) children will sit their test on the same day, regardless even if one or more twin sibling has been granted special arrangements. This means that one or more twin sibling may test at a different test centre to each other. Please plan your journey to ensure you are on time at multiple test centres.
When and where your child will sit the test
We'll provide information about when and where your child will sit the test when the dates for 2026 have been confirmed.
Important information about test dates
Your child is allocated a test date by Medway Council rather than being a parental preference. There is no alternative test date, including where the Medway Test clashes with other tests. If the Medway Test clashes with a different test, you will need to decide which test your child sits.
The arranged test dates are your child’s only chance to sit the test. The test cannot be taken later.
Test date information is correct at the time of publication but may be subject to change.
