I don't think anyone will have much of a clue about this until after the event.

Going by the number at SHS a couple of weeks ago I think it will be a record number of girls anyway. My friend who visited Marling said there weren't that many boys looking round. I wonder if it's a bumper year for girls ? I know stats wise our children's birth year in Gloucs is pretty low so that works in our favour as secondaries are keen to fill spaces !

I do some supply teaching and in most y5 classes, not all, there is definitely more boy heavy classes than girl heavy. Even in dd school where out of 60 children there are 18 girls. But I also know that more of the girls are keen to try the exam than the boys who want to stay with their mates.
