Bournemouth School Test
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2015 10:35 pm
Hi all,
I'm hoping someone will correct me if I'm wrong!
I understood that last year the VR paper was dropped and the papers were maths and English. I've heard a whisper that this year Bournemouth and Poole Grammars are doing a 'joint' entrance exam - rather than each their own as before - and that now the VR paper is coming back. (For 2015 sitting for 2016 entry).
I can't see this on Bournemouth School's website and wondered if anyone had any knowledge?
Also Poole Grammar has historically been easier to get into as the scores needed have been lower. With this new development, if it's correct, does that mean that Poole's threshold will go up or Bournemouth's will go down?
Confused!
