Hi all, I have heard that Essex may be bringing in a catchment area of 12 miles for colchester and chelmsford grammers! Has anybody heard the same.
Thanks

Hi Bobberly

For 2013 entry it is only Chelmsford that has this in place and I think it's 12.5 miles, although they are taking a small percentage outside of catchment, I think 20% (somebody will correct me if I'm wrong!).

As far as the boys' grammar in Colchester is concerned (CRGS) I'm not aware of any proposal to bring in a catchment area at the moment.

I suspect that both grammars in Colchester will be watching what happens in Chelmsford very closely though!
