SEAG Transfer Test

The SEAG Transfer Test is the official entrance assessment used by most grammar schools across Northern Ireland. It replaces previous transfer tests and is designed to support a fair and consistent process for post-primary admissions.

Key Information:

• The 2025 Entrance Assessment is for pupils transferring to post-primary education in September 2026.
• SEAG stands for the Schools’ Entrance Assessment Group, which oversees the test and provides guidance and resources for schools, parents, and pupils.
• The test assesses literacy and numeracy skills aligned with the Northern Ireland Curriculum.
