Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
There is no published official pass mark in the provided evidence.
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.
11+ is not the only route in: the admissions policy also references 12+, 13+, in-year entry and 16+.
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.
