Kendrick Rankings
Do we ever find out what position our child came?
Thanks

Re: Kendrick Rankings
I'm pretty sure that they didn't, last year.

Re: Kendrick Rankings
No - once they are there it is irrelevant.
Re: Kendrick Rankings
It seems that once there scores are never discussed nor is ranking. There's no need.
Re: Kendrick Rankings
I've wondered too, because on the Kendrick acceptance form, right on the front is a "for office use only" section and there is a box to put the child's ranking...
But I'll be grateful if my kids don't find out, at least until they finish & leave!

Re: Kendrick Rankings
indeed, I too saw it on the front of the booklet!
Re: Kendrick Rankings
That was on the form for us too.
As far as I know they don't use those scores in any way. Maybe they use to look at the effectiveness of the 11+ test when the girls finish school. They certainly don't use them for anything else. The school only set for maths (halfway through year 7) and the setting is based on work/tests in school.

Re: Kendrick Rankings
That is really interesting Tinkers, I assumed they would have sets for everything. Any Cats done?
Re: Kendrick Rankings
No CATs done so far, DD is in year 7, don't know if they do them later on, but doubt it. If a girl did well enough to get in then overall they should be doing well in most subjects when there.

Re: Kendrick Rankings
No CATs unless they've changed things recently. There's not really enough of a range of ability to need sets. Pretty much everyone gets A/A* whichever maths set they're in, the difference is more in the style of teaching and size of class.
