When completing an application form with all the schools we prefer, do we have to do a separate application form for independent schools or are all schools :?: to be included in the same form? Are there just 6 options given? :?:

Advice will be much appreciated.

You apply independently to indie schools. They don't need to be mentioned on the CAF at all. The CAF is for state schools.

The state schools have 3 or 6 options on the CAF I think depending on where you live.
You can apply to as many indies as you like but each exam is different so try not to overload your DC and also some have a registration fee to pay.

my DD's prep limited it to 3 exams, (GS or indie) - that was plenty (in this area or North and West Yorks anyway)
