Parmiter's Siblings

Does anyone have first hand experience of sending a sibling, who hasn't had to do an 11+ exam to get in, to Parmiter's?
Is the school as supportive as it is with bright kids?

I did wonder which partially selective school you were referring to on your other thread. Smile

We're hoping to send DD to WGGS on the cross-sibling rule. Surely the majority of children at Parmiters did not get an academic place?

We are hoping to get an academic place at Parmiters this coming year then a sibling place the following year - so watching with interest.

One thing I did notice was the breakdown for last year's places - out of about 206 total places, there were something like 90 siblings. That's a lot compared to the 25% academic places, then of course you have the music places and proximity/other places, so I'm imagining there would be a reasonable spread of academic ability?

I know lots of siblings there - all seem to be doing fine.
