CE at 13+ Registration: Parents/Guardians

Register your child for the CE at 13+ examinations

Your child will most likely be registered for Common Entrance at 13+ (CE) exams by their current independent prep or junior school. However, if your child’s current school does not use CE, or your child currently attends a state school, you may need to register them with ISEB directly.

Please ensure that you have checked whether your child’s current school intends to register your child for the exam session to avoid duplicate registrations. The senior school to which your child is applying can also advise whether you need to complete this form or not. 

Prior to filling out this form, please ensure you have checked the following details:

• The candidate’s current school is not registering the candidate
• The candidate’s current school has registered as an examination centre: Common Entrance Examination Centre Registration Form
• You have discussed the required subjects and levels needed with the prospective senior schools 
• You are aware of the examination fees listed here

If you have any questions about the process, you can contact ISEB through our CE Support Portal. 

Please note: This is not the registration process for the ISEB Pre-Tests. If you need to register your child for the online ISEB Pre-Tests, you need to go to the Pre-Tests Guardian Portal and create an account to register your child for the ISEB Pre-Tests. Visit the ISEB Pre-Tests Guardian Portal. 

If the candidate has been asked to complete the Common Academic Scholarship examinations at 13+ (CASE), the candidate will be registered by the senior school, and the exams are often taken at the senior school to which your child applies for a scholarship.

Registration for the Common Entrance at 13+ Summer 2026 examinations is open from 27 January 2026 to 31 March 2026.
