- St Michael's Catholic Grammar School is a girls' school. Its pages do not give a results date, so check any message the school has sent and contact it if you have heard nothing. The school ranks every girl who sat the four tests from the highest score. A rank is not a place offer.
- The school's own Supplementary Information Form closed on 7 July 2026. Name St Michael's on your home council's application too. Barnet's closing date is 31 October 2026. If you live elsewhere, check your own council's date.
- Barnet sends offers on 1 March 2027. A girl who sat the test, was ranked and named St Michael's but is not offered a place goes on the school's waiting list until 31 December 2027, in rank order. Appeals must be lodged by 4pm on 31 March 2027.

1. Entrance test by invitation
The school policy says applicants are invited to take four written tests in Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, English and Mathematics. The published September 2027 entry test date was 11 September 2026. The policy ranks applicants by test score; it does not publish a provider or a paper-by-paper timing or weighting formula.
2. Rank and oversubscription criteria
Applicants are ranked from the highest score. Published faith, looked-after and Pupil Premium criteria determine priority, including stated eligibility among the top 175 test ranks for specified categories. Where applicants tie and cannot all be admitted within a criterion, tie-break order is Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, English, Mathematics, then home-to-school distance.

Scoring and eligibility
The policy says all applicants who sit the four tests are ranked from highest score, but it does not state the score-combination weights or identify a fixed qualifying score. Admission is by published oversubscription criteria, including the policy's stated top-175 ranking condition for specified priority categories and PAN 128. When tied applicants cannot all be admitted within a criterion, tie-breaks use Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, English, Mathematics, then home-to-school distance. A test result or rank does not guarantee an offer.
