Common mistakes parents make
Misconceptions we hear most often about this school
This is not a grammar-style school with a published qualifying score.
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.
13+ entry is not only via Common Entrance; Wrekin also runs its own entrance assessment.
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.
For sixth form, the school requires testing and published academic expectations rather than simple automatic progression for all applicants.
This means there's no single pass mark to aim for. Preparation should focus on performing strongly across all areas rather than targeting a specific number.
