Have spoken to Urmston, who were extremely helpful and friendly in my questions and enquiry. However they have a strict policy that not allowed to give out information on how many children passed this year.

Does anyone have any previous information rough numbers as to what may be a very loose figure?
Thanks.

It seems very strange that they will not give the information. Last year they had the following on their website, which I have 'cut & pasted':

All entrance test results have been posted. Please do not telephone the school with queries before Wednesday as the admissions staff are unavailable.

Frequently asked questions and requested information is copied below:.
• 832 candidates sat the Entrance Exam for 128 places.
• 311 candidates were successful including those who underwent the automatic and local review processes.
• The required pass mark is 355 out of a possible total 423.
• A score of 403 and above would currently put your child in the top 20, although it is likely that this score could possibly be lower after school preferences have been considered by the LA..
