places at sale grammar
Hi does anyone know if everyone in the catchment area that passed for sale was offered a place last year? According to the letter 545 passed for sale this year but there are only 180 places so just a bit worried that my dd won't be offered a place' even though we live 0.6 miles away!

Yes, that's what I was told by the admissions person at Sale - 7 places initially offered out of catchment, and there are now 14 from outside catchment in current year 7 (i.e. a further 7 were offered to out of catchment, I suppose because some went private, moved away etc.). She also told me that the highest score on the current year 7 waiting list is 369 (i.e. they offered places down to a score of 370).
Our son scored 390, so we're keeping our fingers crossed.

Thats put my mind at rest a bit more, my dd passed for both sale and stretford but living just down the road from sale grammar this would obviously be our first choice! We were just a bit concerned with the amount of people passing that we wouldn't be offered a place! AGSB old boy didn't your ds pass for alti as well, will you put there as your 1st choice?
