In Medway, we have six selective (grammar) secondary schools. These are:
- Chatham Grammar School for Boys
- Chatham Grammar School for Girls
- Fort Pitt Grammar School
- Rainham Mark Grammar School

What does the Medway Test consist of?
The Medway Test consists of three separate papers:
- An extended writing exercise
- A mathematics paper
- A verbal reasoning (VR) paper
These tests are specifically written for Medway and are designed to select 23 per cent of children in the year group as assessed suitable
for grammar school education. A further two per cent are selected through the review process.
