Dear all,
I saw the consultation for a proposal of reducing the entrance requirements for students by reducing the score to 324.
The section on the website states
"Altrincham Grammar School for Girls’ current oversubscription criteria already places Pupil Premium students as second and we continue to attract a number of students meeting this criteria, reflecting the positive access arrangements that already exist. However, Governors have resolved to keep admissions under review and are resolute in their ambition to ensure that the demographic and socio-economic makeup of the school that makes AGGS such a unique place to study and learn does not change. We are therefore proposing to change the qualifying score for applicants who are in receipt of Pupil Premium to 324"
If the school is already attracting a number of students who meet this criteria, doesn't reducing the entry requirement make it unfair for students not on pupil premium?
Any thoughts forumites?
