Wikipedia Overview
A selective school is a school that admits students on the basis of some sort of selection criteria, usually academic. The term may have different connotations in different systems and is the opposite of a comprehensive school, which accepts all students, regardless of aptitude.
Primary education is rarely selective, secondary education is selective and comprehensive depending on country, at the university level is almost universally selective.
