Crosfields School

Crosfields School, commonly and colloquially known as Crosfields and initialised XF is an interdenominationalpreparatory day school on Shinfield Road in the civil parish of Shinfield, near the border of the boroughs of Reading and Wokingham in the English county of Berkshire.

Established in 1957 when it gained independence from Leighton Park School as Leighton Park Junior School, it is set within 44 acres (180,000 m2) of ground. The school is now fully co-educational.'Co-Ed' Crosfields currently has over 500 pupils aged between 3 and 13. A Nursery class opened in September 2008. Boys and girls (in the Pre-Preparatory School) are selected through interview and assessment at all ages starting with Reception. It is less common for people to join at the top end of the school (Year 8) and certain interval years (Year 4, 6, 7). An extra class is created in Year 5 and 6, making it 4 classes, to allocate more pupils. Some pupils take examinations at 11 which take them on to senior schools but most pupils tend to stay on until they are 13 and sit Common Entrance exams set by the Independent Schools Examination Board (ISEB) which will take them on to independent senior schools. However, there are exceptions from Common Entrance such as acceptance to grammar schools (notably nearby Reading School) and other independent, public and private schools that require slightly different methods of examination.
