Not even sure if this is the right place for the message but here goes.
DS1 is 2 and have made lots of nice MC friends through NCT etc since he was born. I don't have that background myself though "pass" usually (I am a bit conscious of it or I'd ask my friends direct).
We're in catchment for a good state primary and in a grammar school area so I'm hopeful that actually we don't need to consider going private, and in reality financially it would be a huge challenge based on our current position. However, the other day we were (half) joking about our pfb toddlers' various precocious talents and how they'd get them into the private schools nearby on scholarships. I realised if I did want to do this, I seriously have no idea how.
It maybe as simple as ringing up the schools in question and saying "what are your criteria for scholarships?" But I've a feeling there is unwritten knowledge beyond this and would welcome pointers from knowledgeable types on here...
