Open days

Post by Eromdap »

Am I correct in that Crypt and Ribston schools' open days are both on 12th October? Seems a bit daft given that Crypt are hoping to attract some girls for 2018.

Yes you are correct.

Ribston have an open morning on 12 October with an open day/evening on April 27.

Crypt have an open day/evening on both 12 October and March 22 for year 5 and 6 pupils.

When we had to look around secondary schools a few were on the same day :roll:

But they do all have more than one open event and you can also book a visit by yourself.

This happened in my dd's year too. I wondered at the time whether it was a deliberate policy to make people choose, although that would be a risky strategy!

Doesn't really help that I have y6 dd trying to choose girls' grammar (if she passes) and y5 ds having a look at boys' grammars in preparation for next year's 11+. I also work mornings, so evenings are best for us.

Although, with Ribston & Crypt being quite close is it not better to see both on the same day if you so wish. Easier to compare & less shuttling about on multiple days?
