DS 11 has an interview soon at Halliford. Can anyone offer any advice on what he can expect? Any views on the school would be very much appreciated too. Thanks

Yes, DS seemed quite happy afterwards. He wasn't expecting the tests on the laptop so hope that didn't throw him too much. Overall positive but very difficult to tell really.

How about your DS?

Yes he said the computer tests were harder than he thought they'd be but maths and English ok. Any idea when results will be out?

Hi 👋

We are also wondering when the results are out? Other schools we sat for gave us dates but Halliford didn't?

My DS found exams ok said maths was pretty easy .

So either of you have update on results day !?? Thanks

Starlilly88 · 26/01/2019 10:04

The admissions lady said around 2 weeks (when I asked her earlier this week). So about 10 days hopefully

Lunawoods · 26/01/2019 10:20

Thanks, nervous waiting game for these results it's such a large birth year !

Starlilly88 · 01/02/2019 18:33

Lunawoods · 01/02/2019 19:22

Does the school operate any kind of transport or shuttle from S-E London Croydon or Beckenham?

Lunawoods · 02/02/2019 15:09

Anyone do 13 !?

Starlilly88 · 02/02/2019 16:12

Any recent views on Halliford?

Lunawoods · 09/02/2019 15:26

Starlilly it seemed very popular this year , I know a few boys waitlisted from our prep who are keen , what are you thinking ? I feel it's pastorally strong and results seem to be on the up 🤔

Lunawoods · 10/02/2019 15:27

Be good to hear from any current parents their views.

Hi all
We got a offer from Halliford and St George’s College. Struggling to decide between the two although Halliford always seems to draw us more. Have you all accepted Halliford or made any formal decisions? Pros and cons ?
