I think if the family is relatively poor and the other kids at the school are rich he might feel a bit left out. If that is the Mum's thinking, I don't blame her. With independent schools there is always something going on like a trip or extra things that aren't included in a bursury/scholarship.
Did you mean 22nd February? The Grammar results are published on 2nd March. The school isn't stupid, if they want the kid that much then surely they will wait another week, not try and pressure the parents. Does she have to pay a deposit anyway? If not just say yes and retract later.

Why did she let her son sit the test if she's not intererested in the school? I hope the school offers the place to a deserving family on the waiting list.

She does need to pay deposit but she has to sigh the contract also the child get to go all the trips and pocket money paid by the school. How lucky!
