Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Passing a grammar-style test is not the same as a guaranteed offer if the school is oversubscribed.
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.
For this school, the evidence points to consortium-based selective testing rather than a school-only exam route.
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.
