I'm planning way ahead here (as I do). But, assuming grammar schools are still around in the next decade, I want to know how one might prepare dher children for the best chance of getting in.
Is there a national admissions test?
Does each grammar school have it's own test?
Are there things not taught in state schools that they might need to know?
I'm just an ignorant foreigner here so not sure how it all works.
I do not wish to discuss the morality of the existance of grammar schools. I want to know how best to get my kids into the best one possible as my ability to fork out for private school (which was my plan) is in question.
