Hi my DS scored 230 in Bexley and we live near to Bexley grammar (less than a mile).. and he Scored 391 in Kent.. Our first choice is DGS.. please could some experts advice whether there is any feasibility for DGS for this mark as we OOC?

Can I make it DGS as my first preference and Bexley Grammar as my second preference? Also is there a feasibility for Bexley grammar for this score?

Hi Miracle,

I cannot comment on DGS as I have no experience but for Bexley Grammar, on past allocations, you would get a place on offers day living as close as you do. On offers day this year, Bexley Grammar offered to 2.2 miles.

DGS OOC score was around the 370 mark last year - you should be safe with your score?

You should list schools in your true order of preference - you're a sure bet for both schools IMO so put DGS first if that's your preferred school?

(and well done to your ds!)

Hello,
With your past experience - can we get a place at Bexley Grammar if we live 1.382 miles away and got the score of 236?
Also about DGS for Girls- we are OOC and got 421 out of 423, do we have to worry?
Our first preference is Bexley as it's closest in distance and we like it.
Thank you!

the score isn't relevant for Bexley - a pass is a pass and only distance counts after that.

1.382 miles will be fine.
