Newton Prep?

[javaprogrammer]

My neighbour said her son just received an offer from Newton Prep for reception. She seems very happy as if getting an offer from Highgate. Isn't Newton essentially open to all (who can pay)? I don't see why the happiness.

@javaprogrammer popped up on a thread about independent schools in Yorkshire too. Think it's rage bait!

Ah thanks … was feeling somewhat confused

I have reported this post as another from same poster with the aim of incitement (at best).

Thanks all for confirming my view.
Adios.

I live nowhere near NP nor know anyone there or anything about it! But I’m fed up with well meaning people reading JP’s posts and getting concerned.
Au revoir though!

According to the Good School Guide, it does seem that the reception class is 3x oversubscribed, so not as open to anyone with direct debit as I thought.
