Hi
Burnham Specialism is Maths and Science but you need to pass a verbal reasoning test to gain entry :shock:

Langley Grammar: Mathematics and computing specialist
Herschel Grammar: Technology specialist
Slough Grammar: Language + Science specialist
Burnham: Science specialist

If you are loloking at Burnham I hear that they had an OFSTED inspection last week - the report should be on the website within two weeks or so.

Goodness gracious Guest2 - are you really Mrs Long, Head Teacher?

If so, you are very welcome indeed on the Forum.

Best wishes

"Mrs Long Headteacher" is included within the quotation marks, so I wouldn't assume guest2 is Mrs Long.
