9 year olds going to secondary school

I'm puzzled as to how these children can be accepted into Y7 but other children have to stay with their year groups.
I'm thinking about situations such as where parents would prefer to delay a year before school entry but are told the child would have to go straight into y1, or where children are held back when they are quite capable of completing the curriculum for their year. I'm sure there are other situations.

Wow, that girl doesn't even have her front teeth in properly! More about the family achievements here.
Sorry I haven't a clue about your question, though.

They don't always. My youngest repeated yr 1 and stayed with that group - he should be going to yr6 in september but will be going to yr5. He won't skip y6 to start secondary either.

You just need to present your case to the lea. we sent them a letter setting out exactly why not doing it would be a Bad Bad Idea.

what a fantastic story. They seem to be keeping this Excellence In Education organisation quiet. Why don't they give them more national publicity? You'd think all the experts would be beating their door down trying to learn how to do it. Probably highlights their own failure

Thing is didn't the twins get an F and a G in Maths GCSE? Whilst I am all for the organisation and ones like it, what's the hurry with secondary school? Also won't they have to re-take Maths as they didn't get entry level qualifications?
Not that that's necessarily a problem though.
