Anyone know how far people have got in on church places at Greycoats. I know the open places distance are on the website but there doesn't seem to be anything as regards church places? Would be v grateful for any info....

My friends daughter is from streatham and her friends live in the docklands if that helps - I think she is on a church place.

We know girls from Greenwich, Blackheath and Charlton.

Which category? Greycoats has the most complex arrangements (fair banding, feeder schools, church attendance) plus super-selective language places. So if you are hoping for a non-feeder church place, the greatest distance will be way shorter than someone on a language place.

Also, the criteria changed 5 years ago, so only those currently in years 7-11 now are on same arrangements as those currentiy in force.

Does GC have feeder schools? I couldn't find this in their admissions?
