The Role of SEAG

SEAG provides an Entrance Assessment with standardised outcomes (results) for pupils transferring from primary school to any of the schools which use SEAG outcomes within their Admissions Criteria.


SEAG provides an online registration process, as well as timely information and guidance for parents/guardians, teachers and others.

SEAG is run by the Principals of its member schools.
