Fees are the day fee for the entry year covered by each guide (usually Year 7 for 11+ entry and Year 9 for 13+ entry) and exclude lunches, trips and extras unless the school includes them. Schools change fees each year; the school's website is the reference for the current round. Schools without a verified published fee are not listed.
