Kingshurst CTC

Post by Red Mommy »

Hi, hope you can help. Kingshurst CTC in North Solihull is the only decent school in our area. Does anyone know anything about the paper(S) used in their entrance test?

Also, CTC have changed their entrance criteria to prioritise catchment area; and guess who falls a few yards outside the 3mile 'exclusion zone'. I figure my son will either need to get exceptional results or do so badly he gets in as special needs!!

Thx

Might be worth posting this in the Birmingham section as Kingshurst is not (as far as I'm aware) an independent fee-paying school but part of the sate syste, possibly becoming an academy soo, and it seems from their website

that testing is to put children in ability bands
