Wallington Girls catchment and the NWSSEE
Wallington Girls shares the SET and NWSSEE with Nonsuch, with its own priorities. The 2027 policy uses a 6.7km catchment.
How places are split
100 ranked places for any address, and up to 110 catchment places, less priority allocations.
The girls' second stage
NWSSEE is English composition and maths, and both must be passed. The final score is half the SET score plus the two NWSSEE scores.
Checklist
- Check the address rule and evidence for your category.
- Naming both schools needs no extra preparation.
