Admissions for private primaries soaring

Every school I’ve contacted has a record number of applications - including my DS’s junior school which is quite competitive and even the non-selective other ones. This is at 7+ and above level. Is anyone else finding this? The feedback I’m getting is that demand has soared since lockdown.

I’m still very close to my senior school friends. Impossible to generalise!

Home schooling was a wake up call for many parents witnessing first hand how bad the teaching are in some schools.

This! and certainly our main reason for moving our child from state to private although it was what convinced my husband who was always against private education. It was the best thing we could have ever done and they are much happier in their new school 🏫
