Year 6 Middle School Academic Scholarship Program
At ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ's, we pride ourselves on providing an environment that encourages students to explore and flourish. Our Middle School provides students with a learning environment that enables them to experiment, discover and create. Not only will students be provided with opportunities to develop their academic skills with a robust curriculum, they will also be provided with a place to develop and nurture friendships and experience personal growth.
Year 6 is part of Middle School at ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ's, and we provide a supportive environment as they take those first crucial steps into Secondary with a carefully designed transition program. Discover more about our Middle School values and curriculum here.
As a way of encouraging excellence in education and rewarding high achievement, ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s will be offering a limited number of Academic Scholarships for students entering Year 6 in 2026.
About the Scholarship
Up to four scholarships are available, with partial tuition fee remission. Scholarships will be awarded for the students’ entire Secondary School career at ³ÉÈ˶ÌƬ’s, subject to ongoing review. The number of scholarships awarded each year (and the percentage of tuition fee remission) is at the discretion of the School Council.
The Scholarships are awarded on the performance of the student in the scholarship examination. Shortlisted candidates may also be interviewed prior to the final selection of Scholarship recipients.
The testing will be conducted independently by Academic Assessment Services.

About the Test
Students are assessed in:
- Abstract Reasoning and Problem Solving – this test assesses the ability to reason with and analyse information using verbal, mathematical, figural and spatial concepts
- Mathematics Achievement and Reasoning – for primary and junior secondary students, these tests assess curriculum-related mathematics tasks and mathematical reasoning tasks. Middle and senior secondary students are assessed on mathematics reasoning tasks. These are different to curriculum-based mathematics and focus on problem-solving skills.
- Reading Comprehension – this test assesses the ability to remember, locate, analyse, evaluate, derive and combine text propositions with fiction and non-fiction texts of increasing complexity.
- Written Expression – this test assesses students’ facility with written language.
Please note that special preparation or coaching is not likely to improve results. The best preparation is to arrive relaxed and refreshed on the testing day. A good night’s sleep is very important.
