Selection Review Process Advice Bucks
Posted: Mon Oct 18, 2021 11:33 am
Hi there,
I was wondering if you could help with any specific pointers on what to include/exclude on the submission for selection review.
My daughter scored 117, her results were:
VR: 117
Maths:117
NVR: 119
I have had a chat to the HT of her school and she is grading her a 1:1 and is giving her maximum support. She said she has no doubts that she is academically able and her attitude to learning is outstanding. Her only worry is her reading scores were lower at the end of the summer and she is going to say that she will be supporting her on this and her Autumn result already shows improvement.
In terms of my statement, she mentioned that I should talk about why a grammer school is appropriate, her learning attributes, drive, and examples of what she likes outside of school. What kind of evidence would you submit?
Extenuating circumstances - she had food poisoning the weekend before the test, but was not off school. So am I best not to mention that. Otherise I don't have anything to offer.
Many thanks in advance, Jo
