Post by jyothi »

Hi All, my son's combined score is 104 being in outer priority area what will be the chance for him to get a place in Tiffins please?

In the email they have mentioned the waiting list my come just before Easter, does it mean before or after the Easter term break?


Many Thanks

Hi All,

Does anyone got the offer from Tiffin Boys who are currently living in Outer priority Area. (10Km to less than 14KM has been defined as outer priority)

I don't think anyone has been allotted a place from outer priority area. My DS scored 108 and we are just outside the borders of inner priority....

That is very sad Ashford Dad. They should have removed 10 to 14 and just put less than 10.

10-14 is a misnomer. It is not a Priority Area if no one gets in!

Yes. I have a DS currently at Tiffin, we are in what is now considered Outer Priority. His brother didn't get in this year. I'm not holding my breath. I don't know anyone who got in beyond 10KM

This is really hard, raisingkids.

If only it was clear at the time of application that the priority area had not just been re-defined but effectively reduced, we wouldn't even have bothered to sit the exam last year. I'm glad that Tiffin was not our first choice, either for the first or the second son.

It is what it is. He still got into a good school and has accepted that they aren't going together. He did very well on the test and in a way, that shows himself what he can do. He knows he did well, He knows it was a long shot with the new outer vs inner priority areas. He will be fine. I just think they should do what Tiffin Girls did and say 10km or only accepting from these post codes. Maybe they will now. It's all a gamble.
