Thanks all.

What a stupid system for us in Dover though - being told one day by KCC your child is not suitable for a grammar school and then the next that they are! :roll:

Never mind, it worked out OK for us.

C'mon Denis Denis. You can't complain about a system that gives you a second bite at the cherry.

Having said that, as YoYo will tell you, most of the Dover cohort are fish. :wink:

You're right, it's great to have a second bite at the cherry (and thank goodness we did) but I just wish they would give us the results in one go - too much to ask?

Anyway, I'm not moaning, I'm delighted!

Oi! Just re-read that last bit,you cheeky thing! Maybe half the cohort is fish, but DGGS still does extremely well in the league tables each year. Must be all the omega 3 :lol:
