Very difficult decisions, but it's where you think your child will flourish. We have chosen Bancroft for our son and he is really excited about starting there.

Well done to everyone on this forum who has got into schools that they are happy with, and fingers and toes crossed for those still waiting. I think that Bancrofts, Forest and Chigwell will have some very bright children starting in September!
As for my DD she has been offered a full academic bursary at City of London School for Girls, which needless to say we are taking and we are absolutely delighted about! It feels really great to finally have a decision.
A new chapter will be opening for us all and our DC very soon - how exciting is that?!

Hi Fatboyslim we have made our decision and accepted Bancrofts. DD was very happy once seeing the school and confirmed to her it was the right school choice for her. Those pastries certainly were good!!! Such a relief and can now finally relaxHi dd34, was at Bancroft's today aswell and have accepted a place!

We are sitting the exam in Jan for Bancroft and Forest
What materials did you all use when your children were sitting the exam - or did you use tutors - if so, pls PM me the details
We are using Bond Papers - starting at the assessment papers age 9-10 and will work upto 10-11+. We do about 5 english 10 min papers a day and 2 -3 maths assessment papers
Any help you can give would be appreciated...Kinda feeling lost and I know Im rubbing off on my son

cover all the topics for maths before you go onto practice papers. Use past papers from other schools - Latymer, Habs, Bancrofts, etc (lots available from different indies) to practice maths & english. You can also use standard format papers available from shops.
