Hi all
Ds secured sure place in QM ,however scored 235 in KE.now that CHB is a wait and watch ,what do you think my second option should be on the LA form.The first would be CHB ...I am not worried about distance because we have to relocate anyway.Thanks in advance for your replies but I need one for peace of mind.
Is FW better than QM or vice versa.

Priya, I could have written exactly that. Ditto same situation: same mark, same preference dilemma and the same relocation issue

Wow MSD ,so I am not alone.Good to know we are in this as a team.please do share if you know something and I will do the same too.who knows our kids might be in the same school or even better same class...some relief

As far as CHB is concerned your guess is as good as mine. But either way it has to go on the form as first preference; nothing to lose. In fact the cut-off has never exceeded 235 for CHB.

May be some of our fellow posters can provide guidance.

Can't comment about QM - but DS is now in the U6 at KEFW

We originaly wanted KECHB but just missed out all those years ago but it's worked out very well indeed

KEFW is a really excellent school, we have been very pleased.

Large school but this has some advantages, choice of A Levels or IB in the 6th form

Travel isn't really a problem anyway - Green buses go there from all over the West Midlands

KECHB is popular for a very good reason, if this is the school you want then put it down as first. We also sat and got a very good place at KES but declined once KECHB came through for us. It really is a very good school.

Thanks KenR and Paramjeet Phaji!! Much appreciated.

We really need to sit down and decide over the next few days.
