Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
Do not assume there is a published 11+ pass mark just because 11+ entry exists.
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.
Do not rely on forum anecdotes as evidence of admissions difficulty or school culture.
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.
