Entwistle](https://blog.applicaa.com/author/nicola-entwistle) ![](https://blog.applicaa.com/hubfs/ExAMs+%20(1).png) You're already using Applicaa to manage your Year 7 admissions and onboarding - but are you still juggling spreadsheets, mail merges and manual processes for your 11+ exam registration and results? **💡 Limited time offer: [book a meeting](https://meetings.hubspot.com/mandy-sangha/customer-upsells) before the end of March to get 20% off your first year of Exams+** If you're managing your 11+ process separately, you're not alone. Many grammar schools started with Applicaa for post-offer day admissions, only to discover later that they could eliminate their entire 11+ exam admin burden too. ## The problem: disconnected systems Most grammar schools run their 11+ exam process separately from their admissions platform. This means: ❌ Parents create separate accounts for exam registration vs admissions ❌ Staff manage exam bookings in spreadsheets ❌ Results are uploaded manually to multiple systems ❌ Mail merges are needed for every exam communication ❌ Data transfer between systems creates risk of error It's not just inefficient - it's confusing for parents and creates extra work for your team at the busiest time of year. ## The solution: one platform, one journey **50% of grammar schools in the UK now use Applicaa's Exams+ module** to manage their entire entrance exam process, including Queen Elizabeth's School Barnet, The Latymer School, Tiffin School, Reading School, and Colyton Grammar School. With Exams+ you can: ✉️ **Invite parents and students** to register for the 11+ exam with ease 💻 **Manage exam bookings** through a simple, integrated system ⬆️ **Upload results securely** and share outcomes directly with families **Here's the real benefit:** Because parents are already in your Applicaa system, they get a seamless journey from exam registration right through to admission - no multiple logins, no re-entering data, no confusion. ## Beyond exam day It doesn't stop at results. Everything post-offer day stays in one platform: ✅ Full visibility of parent responses ✅ Secure transition data sent directly from primary schools ✅ Easy-to-use tools for form group planning ✅ One-click data transfer straight into your MIS Everything stays in one secure platform - no spreadsheets, no mail merges, no risk of error. ## What grammar schools are saying Don't just take our word for it. Here's what Thom Copestake, Vice-Principal at Altrincham Grammar School for Girls, told us: > *"The Exams+ platform made our registration process simple and accessible; parents were able to update and complete information easily and we were able to use the system for effective communication. The management of our applicants was straightforward and our administration staff were able to adapt the form when needed. Furthermore, the Applicaa support team were always helpful and engaged with feedback and support, often adding in new tools and features to make the process even easier!"*   ## Ready to simplify your 11+ process? If you're already managing post-offer admin in Applicaa, adding Exams+ is a natural next step. Imagine if your entire 11+ journey - from exam registration to September enrolment - lived in one place. The schools using Exams+ tell us the time saved is significant, but the real win is the peace of mind. No risk of error, no lost data, no parent confusion. --- ## Save 20% on your first year **Want to see how it would work for your school?** [Book a meeting with Mandy](https://meetings.hubspot.com/mandy-sangha/customer-upsells) to walk through exactly how Exams+ integrates with your current setup and answer any questions about customisation, exam consortiums or pricing. Or if you'd like a quote, just send your typical application numbers to [mandy@applicaa.com](mailto:mandy@applicaa.com) and we'll get that over to you. ### Share: [Share on Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://blog.applicaa.com/complete-the-11-journey-why-grammar-schools-across-the-uk-are-using-exams&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook) [Share on LinkedIn](http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://blog.applicaa.com/complete-the-11-journey-why-grammar-schools-across-the-uk-are-using-exams&utm_medium=social&utm_source=linkedin) [Share on X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https://blog.applicaa.com/complete-the-11-journey-why-grammar-schools-across-the-uk-are-using-exams&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&url=https://blog.applicaa.com/complete-the-11-journey-why-grammar-schools-across-the-uk-are-using-exams&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Complete%20the%2011+%20journey%20-%20why%20grammar%20schools%20across%20the%20UK%20are%20using%20Exams+) [Year 7](https://blog.applicaa.com/tag/year-7), [Exams+](https://blog.applicaa.com/tag/exams) ## Nicola Entwistle Head of Marketing [nicola@applicaa.com](mailto:nicola@applicaa.com) ## Comments ## Related posts Search [Celebrating Excellence](https://blog.applicaa.com/celebrating-excellence-applicaa-champions-appreciation-lunch) [Half term prep: Getting ready for Year 7 National Offer Day](https://blog.applicaa.com/half-term-prep-getting-ready-for-year-7-national-offer-day) Search Copyright © 2025 Applicaa LTD, All Rights Reserved ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Nicola Entwistle", "url" : "https://blog.applicaa.com/author/nicola-entwistle" }, "dateModified" : "2026-02-12T10:18:44.792Z", "datePublished" : "2026-02-12T10:18:44.000Z", "headline" : "Complete the 11+ journey - why grammar schools across the UK are using Exams+", "image" : [ "https://blog.applicaa.com/hubfs/ExAMs+%20(1).png" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://blog.applicaa.com/complete-the-11-journey-why-grammar-schools-across-the-uk-are-using-exams", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://blog.applicaa.com/hubfs/APPLICAA_LOGO_White%20Background-1.png" }, "name" : "Applicaa LTD." } } ```
