Does anyone know what has been the movement in the past for Open places in band A at St Marylebone?
I heard that band A has the most movement as the kids ending up in that band traditionally target Grammar and private schools.
How hopeful can we be holding currently spot 25 in band A Open place?

that's a long way down... aren't there 30 places in that band?

There are 15 places in that band.

Sorry Op, I don't the answer, how far from the school are you? I would think the biggest movement will be in the next month, it will be worth finding out your waiting list position at the end of the month and perhaps dropping an email to the admissions email address and asking how far down the waiting list they typically go in that band before September.
