My DD got a low rank for HSFG (440) and with just over a month to go to allocations day I am considering our next move...
I am not expecting an offer, even though it is our first choice (and our only grammar option) on the CAF, our others being local comps.
I therefore have a dilemma - do we go through the hassle of an appeal or not?? What are our chances? DD had a glowing Y5 report, but would she struggle if we did manage to scrap a place? Do the grammars only qualify children they feel will cope academically or is it purely to fill their numbers??
I guess I am asking if there are children out there who got in on appeal (low ranked) and have coped well at their school. Thanks
