Coventry City Council is clear that there are no grammar schools in the city, and no Coventry secondary uses an entrance test, aptitude test or banding — places come down to catchment, siblings and distance. So for a Coventry family the 11+ is entirely opt-in and entirely out-of-area. Nothing happens automatically.

In practice that means looking to Warwickshire, where the Rugby schools are the realistic commute for most of the city, with Stratford and Alcester materially further. Warwickshire uses the same West Midlands entrance test as Birmingham, covering English, verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning and maths — but it runs its own registration with its own deadline and its own sitting dates. Coventry sits between two systems using the same paper, and the deadlines are not the same.

The trap is the calendar. Registration for these tests closes at the end of June, roughly four months before the 31 October secondary application deadline that most parents have in their diary. Coventry's independent schools, including King Henry VIII, set their own papers separately — typically English comprehension, composition and maths — and the national assessments run alongside: phonics in Year 1, multiplication tables in Year 4, KS2 SATs in the May of Year 6.
