Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Meeting the qualifying score does not automatically guarantee a place.
Qualifying as selective-eligible is only the first hurdle. Final allocation depends on oversubscription criteria, and distance from the school is frequently the deciding factor.
The 11+ process is administered centrally through West Midlands Grammar Schools, not solely by the school.
Parents often assume the highest scorers get priority. In practice, once a child meets the selective threshold, proximity to the school can matter more than raw score.
