Thanks Tiddlymum for all the info. Quite helpful! Looks like I have start planning for uniforms sooner.

• Jumper - This should be plain grey and v necked or the school pullover for Years 7, 8 and 9. Years 10 and 11 may wear either a plain grey or a black v-necked pullover.

From the school website- see above.

Extra curricular activities- there are too many to list but the boys get details when they start.

No sports and pe kits are one and the same.

White shirt and white shorts/rugby top and black shorts- plus footwear

I would go for an official sweater. DS is in year 7 and every single boy in his class wears the sweater with a stripe on the collar. Your son might feel a bit left out if he is going to be the only one not wearing the official uniform.

Hi
Do Sales and AGSB have separate sciences in year 7?If not then at what year do they start? Are they following AQA for sciences in AGSB?
In Birmingham grammars they have separate sciences in year 7-does it make a difference? Too many questions. Please help

Hello mummmy,

I think AGSB, do not have a separate sciences, i believe. I remembe asking this question sometime when we decided put the school as our first choice. I think from middle of y8 that science get divided into 3. I think tiddlymum would be able to answer that question soon and rest of queries as well.

I am keen to know as well.

[TIDDLYMUM]

Hmmm you have got me there- but I think they start doing separate sciences from Y8? I do know that all 3 sciences are compulsory at GCSE.
