CASE AT 13+ | INFORMATION FOR SCHOOLS

CASE at 13+
We offer a series of Common Academic Scholarship (CASE) assessments in English, mathematics, science, history, geography, theology, philosophy and religion, French and Latin. The questions are based on our Common Entrance (CE) at 13+ specifications. Pupils sitting CASE assessments are entered by the senior schools they have applied to, who choose which papers pupils will sit and also mark the papers. Pupils will usually sit the exam at the senior school.
REGISTERING PUPILS FOR CASE ASSESSMENTS
Pupils sitting CASE assessments are entered by the senior schools they have applied to, who choose which papers pupils will sit and also mark the papers. Pupils will usually sit the exam at the senior school.
Some senior schools select their scholars from candidates who sit CE in the autumn or spring term. These candidates will be entered for CE in the usual way.
Senior schools will register candidates for CASE through the Examination and Qualification Registration Area, located in the Schools Hub on the ISEB website. Visit the Examination and Qualification Registration Area for more information on the registration process.
Schools will need an ISEB School Account to access product-specific registration pages on the website and submit candidates.
SPECIFICATIONS
The questions for CASE assessments are based on our CE at 13+ specifications.

ORDER CE AND CASE PAST PAPERS
Schools can now order past papers for Common Entrance (CE) and Common Academic Scholarship (CASE) exams through our new online shop. To access school-only products including individual print-on-demand papers and digital bundles of PDF papers, schools will need a verified ISEB School account for the online shop. Your school may already have an account - if you are unsure, please contact us by submitting a ticket through the Shop Support Portal. If you need support with setting up your school's account for the online shop please contact us by submitting a ticket through the Shop Support Portal. See further information about ordering past papers below.
ORDERING PAST PAPERS
Past CE and CASE exam papers are available to buy through the ISEB Online Shop. Schools can buy printed and digital past papers from the past five years, and can also place Advance Orders for brand-new past papers through the shop. Please note that you must be logged in to your school’s ISEB School Account to see school-only past paper products.
In September 2021, we launched new CE and CASE specifications. All past papers from Autumn 2022 follow this updated specification, and all papers from previous sessions follow the CE and CASE syllabus used until June 2022. Please be assured that all of our papers are valid revision and practice materials, and revising with past papers remains the best way to prepare for tests.
Past papers will become available to schools immediately after each live exam session, and can be pre-ordered during each Advance Order period. Parents and tutors are not able to order papers until one year after the exams have taken place, so schools can purchase the most recent papers for practice purposes knowing that pupils will not have seen them.
Advance Orders
Schools can place orders for practice papers in advance of the next set of exams. This will ensure that they receive the papers immediately after the live exams have taken place. Please see our Annual Schedule for ISEB Advance Orders for more information on when and how you can place your pre-orders.
ISEB School accounts
The ISEB School Account is an account that provides access to school-only content and products on the ISEB website and online shop to schools that work with CE or CASE examinations or the iPQ.
It allows schools to order past papers for CE and CASE, and to register candidates for examinations and qualifications such as the iPQ. Find out more about the ISEB School Account.
If your school does not yet have an ISEB School account, you can request one here: www.iseb.co.uk/register.
Online shop support and guidance
We recommend that you read the guidance information and FAQs on the Support and Guidance for Schools page before you place your first order.
FEEDBACK TO ISEB
Schools are invited to give feedback on the examination papers by completing ISEB’s online surveys, which are sent out after the spring examination session. It is hoped that as many schools as possible will complete the surveys for each subject. ISEB welcomes feedback from schools at any time of the year; please direct your comments to our Customer Support Portals.
