GS without catchment

Hi 2010 mum, my daughter is in year 5 so she will be taking 11+ at the same time as yours.
Bexley has some super grammars but it really depends on distance criteria unless your dd scores highly and becomes one of the top 180 in the exam.
Bexley Grammar only manages to go out 3 miles. Chis and Sid 4.8 miles and Townley 7 miles. These distances are by lit road/pathway and not as the crow flies.

Hi - no, the ease of getting there by public transport is not taken into consideration. Based on distance the closest Bexley GS to us is actually the most difficult to get to (2 buses and a walk) and the furthest away is really easy on the train!
Newstead Woods in Orpington gives places based only on scores - VR and NVR papers.
