How places were given for September 2027 entry
- 186 boys join Year 7.
- Boys must pass the SET for Wilson's, then sit its second stage test. The final rank combines the SET with the second stage English and maths papers in the ratio 1:2:2, after an age adjustment.
- Places do not depend on where a boy lives. Home address is used only to separate tied boys, with boys living in the London Borough of Sutton first.
- Tied boys who live in the London Borough of Sutton come first, nearest to the school's front door first. Then boys living elsewhere, also by distance. If still tied, a random ballot decides.
