SHS Appeal reply
Posted: Tue May 24, 2011 1:46 pm
Just received 'statement on behalf of governing body of SHS', I must say found it interesting and very helpful.
They don't seem to put up much of a fight!!! (Encouraging)!
They gave us lots of useful info, actually more helpful to us than them I would think! Numbers in the 5 year groups (all over PAN) in fact yr 11 has 129!
They are basically saying we can cope with 2 extra per class, with no prejudice to their existing students, so they will leave it up to the panel to decide. Seems to me they allocate an extra 8 places for this! very strange, didn't think they could do this, but they are certainly not putting up a big fight (not complaining though)!
They also included DD1s answer sheets, where I can see where most her points were lost, -last 20Qs of paper 2, (she panicked and had to guess them, we discussed not leaving anything blank). Could I, should I bring this up and explain what daughter told me happened??
But all in all an encouraging letter from SHS (the supposed opposition)!!
Anyone else encouraged by the letter, or am I missing something??
