CAF Preferences - Interesting exercise

[nervousmom]

I thought it may be interesting to try and collate some information regarding CAF preferences and see which schools people are choosing this year.

Once I have a bit of information together, I will put all the results together and see what we get.

Hoping it will be of interest to people.

Yeah. It's quite an interesting topic. Our preferences in the order were: SCGSG, QMHS, Arthur Terry and then Plantsbrook. Last two both local comps.

Nope we want Handsworth, but we put CHG just in case something crazy goes on.

If you recall we had CHG originally as our first, but changed it because KEHGS is our first pref.

Really interesting idea nm

My CAF list for ds is:

BV
KEA
QMGS
three local comps

We are not that borderline so should (hopefully) get in to 1st choice anyway but CAF order might seem odd as KEA score needed was higher than BV on offer day at least. But that is our genuine preference.

Ours may look a little odd. We're in the fortunate position of having scored 240+ but I don't want to only put one or two choices. So this is our true preference:
KEHandsworth
Camphill Girls
Five ways
Sutton Girls Grammar
University School
Lordswood Girls

[Three2go]

it not that odd my order are
KEHG
CHG
FW
QMHS
SCGS
Holyhead

Thanks for posting this info.

I have spent the evening going through all 89 pages of the 2016 scores post - I know, I need to get a life

Anyway I have found around 102 scores. Not much in the scheme of things and probably not 100% accurate, but might make interesting reading. I have also tried to make. Note of people's preferences as well.

As I say, not accurate, but will give a bit of a 'feel' for what's going on.

Need to collate and then post!
