Local council are bragging about the choice of secondary schools in the area. One is Welsh medium, one is Catholic and then there is one regular state school in our catchment. We do not speak Welsh, we are not Catholic, so that leaves the regular state school. This has just had an absolute slating by inspectors. The crazy part is there is also another state school which is closer to us by over a mile, under a mile to walk in fact, it is in the top 10% for exam results in Wales. It is oversubscribed (unsurprisingly). Apparently we live around 50 metres off the catchment zone, ALTHOUGH when you look at the map, there are children going there who live more than 5 miles away who are in catchment. WTF springs to mind?
