How far offers reached

Each bar shows how far from The Tiffin Girls’ School the last child offered a place lived, under the last admission rule the offers reached. Up to five years, on one scale.

Qualifying is not the same as being offered a place.

Reaching the school's standard means your child can be considered. If more children qualify than there are places, the school gives places using its admission rules, in order. The figures below show how far those rules reached in past years. They are history, not a prediction: they change every year with who applies.

Applications and offers, September 2026 entry (Department for Education)

How many families applied to The Tiffin Girls’ School and how many places it offered. Applicants per place is all applications divided by offers. Families apply to several schools and not every applicant qualifies, so it is not the chance of a place.

About these figures

Is there a Tiffin Girls cut-off score?

Not in the usual sense. There is no fixed pass mark, and the figures the school publishes, as held in our records, count the girls at each stage rather than giving the lowest mark offered a place. Here is what it reports:

Its breakdown by group (pupil premium, Designated Area, Inner Area), with places and appeals:

  • 2026 entry: Pupil premium candidates stage one: 82; Designated Area candidates stage one (includes Inner Area): 1322; Inner Area candidates stage one: 267; Pupil premium candidates stage two: 31; Designated Area candidates stage two (includes Inner Area): 428; Inner Area candidates stage two: 91; Number of places in Year 7 (published admission number): 180; Number of appeals heard: 8; Number of successful appeals: 0The Tiffin Girls’ School 2026 entry: OtherChecked 9 Oct 2026 against The Tiffin Girls' School.The source says: | Pupil premium candidates stage one | 82 | 71 | 74 | | Designated Area stage one | 1322 | 1364 | 1294 | | (includes Inner Area candidates stage one) | (267) | (255) | (279) | | Candidates tested at stage two | 474 | 475 | 465 | | Pupil premium candidates stage two | 31 | 18 | 38 | | Designated Area stage two | 428 | 428 | 425 | | (includes Inner Area candidates stage two) | (91) | (100) | (99) | | Number of places in Year 7 (published admission number) | 180 | 180 | 180 | | Number of appeals heard | 8 | 10 | 5 | | Number of successful appeals | 0 | 0 | 0 |View the official source

Reading these together: most girls who sit Stage One are not invited back, and the places are far fewer than the Stage Two field. Most candidates already live in the Designated Area, so living there helps with priority but does not by itself mean a place. Any past figure is a guide, not a promise. Compare other schools in our 11+ cut-offs dataset.

How the Tiffin Girls ranking works

Each girl ends up with one combined mark: Combined mark = 60% English + 40% Maths. English mark from Stage Two; Maths mark from Stage Two and Stage One in a 3:1 ratio. Raw marks standardised and age-weighted. 10% leeway applied to the standardised Stage Two mark of eligible disadvantaged children.The Tiffin Girls’ School: Score composition (2027)Checked 9 Oct 2026 against The Tiffin Girls' School.The source says: The combined mark will be made up of 60% English and 40% Maths. The English mark will come from the stage two test, and the Maths mark will come from the stage two test and the stage one test in a ratio of 3:1.View the official source

Put simply, English outweighs maths, and Stage Two outweighs Stage One. Comprehension and creative writing feed into the English mark, so writing matters here more than in a multiple-choice-only test. Girls are then placed in order within the school's priority groups: Ranked by combined mark within selection-criteria categories. LAC/PLAC priority and the up-to-60 initial places (Pupil Premium in catchment, then Inner Area) require a combined mark at or above the 350th ranked mark of all who sat Stage Two. No fixed pass mark.The Tiffin Girls’ School: Qualifying rule (2027)Checked 9 Oct 2026 against The Tiffin Girls' School.The source says: Test scores are standardised and age-weighted.
