SOLIHULL SCHOOL
Solihull School is an independent school founded in 1560 is the town’s oldest school. Over its long history, it has earned a reputation for delivering excellence in education and providing students opportunities, a strong sense of community, and ambition. The school prides itself on its exemplary pastoral care and individualised support to give each student invaluable life skills.
The academic success of Solihull School speaks for itself. In 2020 16% of all grades were A*, with 44% of all grades being A—A*. The high calibre of education and firm reputation is recognised by many universities and most Solihull School students in year 13 attain placement at their first-choice university.
The extra-curricular opportunities for students are vast, covering the usual spots, music and art clubs as well as offering more specialised activities such as the prestigious Duke of Edinburgh Award, fencing, and even skiing.
Solihull School organises a range of abroad trips for its students from Rugby tours in Hong Kong, New Zealand, and Fiji, music tours in Italy and World Expeditions in Peru and Bolivia. The school also owns a cottage in Snowdonia which most students will have the opportunity to visit at least once. Every student can partake in an interest they already have with their peers as well as learn and cultivate new skills and hobbies usually not so easily accessed.

IT'S NOT JUST AN EXAM
It’s Not Just an Exam!
We’ve found in our years of experience that students often worry about the other component of the application process — the interview.
​
In the interview, students will be taken to a different and much smaller room than the examination hall and sat in front of an interviewer and asked a series of questions.
​
At Three Jay Practice Exams, we believe in providing each child with an accurate experience as well as knowledge of what they can expect so they can flourish. Unlike our competitors, we offer practice mock interviews with helpful and pertinent feedback to give students confidence in the real interview process.
