Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
This is not only for choristers; the school is broader than its choir-school identity.
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 expect a published 11+ pass mark in the way some grammar schools publish qualifying scores.
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.
