11+ and Transition to Secondary School
Secondary School Transition
At Queen Boudica our main feeder Secondary School is the local 'Outstanding' Secondary School - The Gilberd. We have very close ties with the school, and Mrs Linda Exley, the Headteacher, is one of our school Governors. In 2021 the new Trinity school opened (part of the Gilberd and Colchester High School for Girls Academy) and a number of our pupils now move onto this new school.
Each year, some children attend other local secondary schools including St. Helena, Phillip Morant and St. Benedicts.
11+
Each year a number of Queen Boudica students gain places at either Colchester Royal Grammar School or Colchester High School for Girls. The 11+ exam is taken at the beginning of September in Year 6 and more details can be found here: https://csse.org.uk/
