Interview with Head for Secondary School Entrance

Help, am panicking!! My daughter has an interview next week and we have a chance to meet with the head after her session. We have absolutely loads of information on the school such as exam results, pastoral well being etc etc. I dont want to go in and have nothing to ask but on the other hand I dont want to ask stuff that has already been made available. Any hardened private school parents or teachers who could give me an idea of what to say/ask

Dizzy, we are in the same situation today (well, @ a boys' school) - has your DD had her interview yet? We also have the opportunity to meet the head, (well actually the implication is that he want to see us...)

Good luck to you and your DD.

How about questions about:
Transport. e.g. is there a scheme to put potential car-share families in contact with each other.
How do they allocate children to classes (keep junior school buddies together?)
Do you know when/if they set in each of the subjects
What feedback do you get ? annual reports or half-termly effort & achievement grades
