UPTON COURT
Based on 2020 results, Upton Court has taken one child who lived 26.6 miles away from school. The score of that child was 124. All the remaining placements were below 15 miles distance.
Based on 2019 results, Upton Court has taken 5 children who lived at 15 or more miles away. Score 112 (18.65 miles); Score 123 (16 miles), Score 122 (16 miles); Score 127 (15 miles), Score 122 (15 miles)
HERSCHEL
You can download data from here https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/ ... ng-1207103" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Its difficult to tell but there is a good chance for your friend's DD to get UC.
if you don't mind me asking, why do you prefer UC over Herschel?

Re: SLOUGH ALLOCATIONS 2021
Thanks infiniteloop for your analysis and reply. It does explain well. My friend is equally open with UCG and Herschel but felt UCG to score little better in overall development of the students. I do know this may be subjective.

Re: SLOUGH ALLOCATIONS 2021
always have to be wary of "online reviews" - you don't know who has written then and what their agenda was, they might not even have anything to do with the school..Proud-Dad wrote:The online reviews tell a different story about UCGbrk2019 wrote:Thanks infiniteloop for your analysis and reply.

Re: SLOUGH ALLOCATIONS 2021
The best is always to talk to present and previous students from these schools, also one indication which may not be true always as lot many factors are involved is on the high the cut-off of selection for these schools Year over year, which i think UCG is always 5 or 6 marks ( relative ) higher to HGS . This may also show a trend how the pattern is looking over the years when parents give the order of preference of schools in the application form. I am sure they may not be relying always on online reviews.Proud-Dad wrote:The online reviews tell a different story about UCGbrk2019 wrote:Thanks infiniteloop for your analysis and reply.

At the end of the day both the schools are good.
