11+Offer score trend
The strongest official admissions change in the evidence is capacity rather than score movement: the school says its Year 7 Published Admission Number is 180, with a temporary expansion from September 2023 and a permanent increase to 180 from September 2024.
Waiting list intelligence
Official admissions page notes that for Year 7 entry in September 2026, appeals cannot be submitted until after 2 March 2026 National Offer Day.
Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Passing the entrance test alone does not guarantee a place if more children meet the required standard than there are places available.
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.
