My daughter has gained a score that is above the historic cut off for Newstead Wood Grammar. We are delighted with this as she has been practising for the last eight or so months - though not that intensively, it must be said!
However, now that we have that option, I am not sure if it's the right school for her. It would involve a 45-min journey each way when we have a decent, yet oversubscribed school less than a mile away at which she may get a place (though not guaranteed). She is bright (though not massively self-motivated) but is very keen to go to NW.
DH is cross that I'm making a U-turn as he didn't see why we were putting her in for a Grammar School test in the first place! Now what do I do?
