Hi everyone! My daughter will also be going to Ribston in September. It was her first choice so we're delighted. Both she and we really liked the feel of the school when we went to visit.
She is one of two from her school - the other is her best friend so I hope they put people from the same school in the same classes.
I would like to join the Facebook group but the link isn't working for me. Can anyone help?
6 from our school got GS places with 2 more qualifying but not getting a high enough score (though one is on the waiting list). I think this is quite good for a normal state school - 10% of the year! I'd be interested to know if other state schools have similar stats?
Yes this number is similar to my sons school. I think about 7/8 of them got a place and a few qualified but didn't get in. About half the class sat the test. Quite a miracle given the recent rating of our primary in the good schools guide (it was absolutely abysmal!) They didn't even ask them at school on Thursday where they were going!
