Is there any information available about where out of catchment children come from for the skipton grammar schools?

Hi - not sure of actual stats but the buses come in from Ilkley (lots of kids) - Keighley (? not so many) - Colne / Earby.

Others come from Settle / Burnley etc

Furthest I know of are Ingleton & Burnley -

Are you out of catchment? if so whereabouts?

Hi

Not sure how many come from Bradford - having said that there isn't any reason why not as the train station (line from Bradford) is nearby - also fair few kids go from Skipton to Bradford Grammar etc..

You have the advantage of seeing how this year works out and will be able to know how many out of catchment kids pass the exam and subsequently get places.

The practice test was today - there were 2 sessions of out of catchment kids and there didn't appear to be huge numbers.

I'll keep you updated
