Historical trend data is not yet strong enough to show confidently.
Waiting list intelligence
No official waiting-list movement data was found in the supplied evidence.
Because this is a grammar-school 11+ entry route, parents should distinguish between any qualifying score and the much more important final offer score after preferences and oversubscription are applied.
Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Passing an 11+ test does not automatically mean a place offer.
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.
Third-party guides may mention places and catchment, but parents should verify the current admissions policy and local authority process.
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.
