Nonsuch and Wallington High School for Girls use the Sutton SET in September of Year 6 (multiple choice English and maths, about 40 to 50 minutes each), then their own joint second stage at the end of September. That has two written papers of about 40 to 50 minutes: maths, where only the final answer is marked, and English, which is a piece of writing on a set subject. There is no comprehension paper at the second stage.
How to prepare for the SET Sutton (girls)
The Sutton SET and the Nonsuch and Wallington second stage covers maths and English. Most families start steady preparation in Year 4 or early Year 5, building accuracy first and speed later, then sit timed papers through the summer before the test, which usually takes place in September.
For maths, secure the Key Stage 2 arithmetic, fractions, ratio and problem solving before moving to the multi-step questions that separate the strongest candidates.
For English, read widely every day and practise comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and grammar; selective tests reward precise word knowledge.
This test includes a piece of writing, so practise planning and writing a short story or description in a set time.
Some answers are written, not chosen, so practise without options to fall back on: write the number or the words yourself, show the working where the paper asks for it, and check each answer against the question.
