It is the fact that it is co-ed which puts SHF above AGS for us. There is a bus which takes 50 mins to the bus station so he would have a walk from the bus station to the school (10 mins?) and a walk to the bus from home (although he would most likely get a lift in the mornings to the bus stop). It is a long journey and I am fully aware that the traffic around Aylesbury in the morning is not great.

I know it's a bit late in the day to ask this and it would be irrelevant if your DC didn't sit the test but do you not have the option of the South West Herts selective schools if your husband has set his sights on selective/grammar schooling?
He did sit SW Herts and SCD is one of the schools we may put on the list but the journey there is not great either. He would be coming from the other direction to most of the children there. On the plus side, he already knows people there.

Of course SHFGS is nearer the bus station and mixed which might both be a factor. However, I think most of us 'veterans' [hope you don't find that term offensive Sally-Anne and anotherdad ] would be shocked if you did not get CGS.
That is extremely reassuring
