GALORE PARK AND THE ISEB

Galore Park works closely with the ISEB (Independent Schools Examinations Board). The majority of our books are endorsed by the ISEB, which means that the books have been edited and/or approved by a member of the ISEB examination setting team for the relevant subject.

The ISEB offers Common Entrance examinations for pupils transferring from junior to independent senior schools at the ages of 11+ and 13+. The syllabuses are devised and regularly monitored by ISEB, which is composed of representatives from the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference, the Girls' Schools Association and the Incorporated Association of Preparatory Schools.
