distance cut-offs canterbury grammars

Post by observer »

Hello, Good Morning and Happy Easter all,
I was wondering if anyone knew the distance cut off for the Langton Boys' and Barton Court this year?
Just trying to plan ahead :)

Hi, observer

Happy Easter

The choice advisors should be able to tell you more, or the Kent Admissions Team, maybe even the schools themselves.

I believe that Langton Boys took in 8 on appeal last year, and Barton Court 5.

Hope this helps.

Don't know Barton Court, but I think SLBGS is about 6 miles. I know ssomeone who got in on appeal from Faversham last year, but they are very oversubscribed this year.

BCGS were also only around 6.5 miles.

Hi Observer

It's worth taking into account that the distance cut off is different every year. In the past, the schools have managed to get out quite a distance, but the last couple of years have been a lot less, although I believe that they came out a little further this year than they did last year.

Unless you look at Chatham house as they take high VR scores above catchment so it doesn't matter where you live.

Ahh..Blakesmum! They only take high VR if you are in the correct parish don't forget?!? So that's not the only thing to consider with Chatham House - we have personal experience!!! :(
