Scholarship test

Tests run by or for independent schools to award scholarships, typically Years 5 to 8.

Independent schools award scholarships on the basis of a test, often set by ACER or Edutest or run by the school itself. Families prepare from Year 5 onward. Centres run scholarship programs from their own practice papers alongside selective preparation.
