DS failed the admissions test for our local grammar school by less than one mark.
His dad is keen for us to appeal. The appeals process states that appeals will be heard if we can prove he is "of grammar school ability." His primary school are happy to provide a letter and evidence to support this.
I am not convinced it's worth it. The appeals process is lengthy and means he won't know which school he will be going to until late in the summer holidays.
Does anyone else have experience of this they can share?
