2019 Test Data

[CatherineA123]

I find this data confusing; it says that

1431 bucks kids got 121+
594 london kids got 121 +
And 376 other area kids got 121+
But it then says 3583 got 121+

They're about 1000 short. Does that mean approx 1k of kids will get 121+ after the reviews?

Ignore the above, I mis-read the sheet.

Most of the children at my kid's primary school (including mine) are having tuition. But pretty much all the parents that I have spoken to think this system is "broken" and hate having to put their kids through this. Most are just trying their best for their kids with the system that is in place so its understandable as the non- grammar school option in the area is not great.

But do people on this forum actually like this system and why is it still in place in Bucks?

No because it's open to abuse/misuse.
Agree with selective schools but this system needs some tighter rules in place.
