The Schools’ Entrance Assessment Group (SEAG) is key in managing the transfer test in Northern Ireland. This test, known as the SEAG Entrance Assessment, replaces the former AQE and GL tests. It is designed to assist academic selection for parents wishing to enrol their children in Northern Ireland schools that use this method, especially grammar schools.
Parents wanting their children to attend these schools must have their child take the SEAG Entrance Assessment. The results are then used by schools to make placement decisions based on academic performance.
GL Assessment, a reputable company with over 40 years of experience in developing academic tests across the UK, is in charge of both creating and grading the SEAG Entrance Assessment. Their extensive experience adds credibility and ensures a fair and standardised evaluation process. The partnership between SEAG and GL Assessment highlights their dedication to maintaining high standards in academic assessment within Northern Ireland’s education system.
