Does anyone happen to know how much difference residential proximity makes to a child's chances of getting into the Oratory RC secondary school in west London? I know it selects from a wider area than most comps and now has some sort of catchment area - though not called that - but is it very much easier to get in if you live nearby and also if you are at the Oratory primary? I'm told there is no guarantee of getting in from the primary but you are more likely to get a place at the secondary if you are at the primary surely? Or is a big old ballot in which children living in Tooting have just as great a chance as Chelsea kids. Many thanks ...
