Bucks admission out of catchment

Post by jaiaarti »

My daughter has scored [121+] and we are not in catchment of any Bucks school, for which schools we have realistic chance?

The score is irrelevant over 121. If you had read threads on here you would know that the forum doesn't allow scores of over 121 to be posted. It is then done on distance in catchment followed by distance for out of catchment. You would have to look at the admissions details for the school you are interested in. Where do you live & which school did you like when you visited. The Bucks grammar schools come in several different "flavours" & not all will suit everyone.

Make a decision first between Bucks and Slough...otherwise people will be giving up their time to give you advice that may be completely irrelevant.

Unfortunately the Bucks folk aren't very keen on 11 plus tourists who want a place at a grammar school - any grammar school, as they tend to push up the scores & mean that local children don't get places. Have a look at some if the other threads on the Bucks section.
