Hi all, would appreciate some advice on Holland Park admission through aptitude. Following the recent art aptitude test at Holland Park High School, we received a letter from the school saying that our daughter “achieved a score of 20 or more out of a possible 40 points” and that this “will allow consideration for admission through Art Apitude for September 2018”. The letter doesn’t tell us her exact score. Further, it says that the 24 aptitude places “will be allocated in descending order starting with the highest score” and that the highest scoring students will be made an offer on the National Offer Day and everyone else will be placed on the waiting list. It’s a hard call for us to make. Do we put Holland Park first and risk not getting a place? Or do we put our local school first safe in the knowledge she’d get a place there? Please has anyone been in a similar situation when your child scored “enough points” through aptitude but has not been offered a place? Your advice is much appreciated. Thank you.
