Altrincham Girls

Hi. We are moving over the summer to Altrincham and our daughter will be sitting the Entrance Exam for Altrincham girls School in September.

What I want to find out is that will the fact that we have recently moved to the area affect our daughters admission to Altrincham girls. Our previous address is outside the catchment area.

Many Thanks in advance.

Having just answered your other post I'm now confused! Is this question in relation to another daughter who will be in Y6 in Sept and taking the entry test for 2010 Y7?

Sorry for the confusion. I have 2 daugters, one currently in Year 5 and one in Year 7.

Many Thanks.

OK then :)

Am I right in presuming that you have already applied for the Sept exam with your current address but you will have a local address by the time of the exam? If so, then you will be fine. When you have moved you need to contact Admissions to let them know of the change of address and try and persuade them to confirm to you in writing that the change has been made.

We have not applied for the september exam yet. We will send in the form once we have moved as the deadline is 20th August.
