Pass marks
Could anyone tell me what the passmark for Lincs is this year (assuming it varies from year to year). In particular, Bourne Grammar. Many thanks

I think the pass mark remains constant fron year to year at 110 average or 220 over both papers. Standardisation of course will affect how well a child needs to do in any particular year to get through.
As Bourne Grammar is a controlled school it will follow Lincolshire's standard admissions policy. This means that the level of the score won't matter so long as the child has passed - places will be allocated according to siblings, distance from school etc. There are some Lincs Grammars which allocate on scores, or use different measures according to whether the child is in catchment or not. Most of the info is in the "Going to School in Lincolshire" book and on the county's website.
