How is the pass mark set?

Post by SuttonDad »

Please could someone explain why Nonsuch would lower the pass mark this year from 286-285?
Presumably there were plenty of in catchment girls missing out on places this year, so why cause the list to increase for next year?
Also, is it really necessary to have 700 girls passing Wallington when so many in catchment girls will be destined to be disappointed?
I wonder how they set the pass mark.
