Yep its hard saw one poor child being sick yesterday before he went in. its only hard to getinto because they have children from all over the place . One child in year 7 took the test last year got in but lives in Brighton and yes he was he was living in Brighton when he took the test
We have just been through a similar experience with Wallington Grammar. They had 1500 boys sit the exam in September with just over 450 passes. There are only 120 places, so how do you explain to a ten year old that although they made the grade and they are suitable for the school but they have not been given a place because of sheer numbers. I sat next to a lady at a school open day who had come from Guildford with her son. There's me worried about how my son will manage the 3 miles journey to school every day!
