You can live in another borough. However, 70 places are allocated based on ability test results, a number of places are allocated to siblings of pupils, children of staff or looked after children etc The number of places left based on proximity to school is such that you do need to live very close to have a chance.

In 2020, admissions in the "open" category. - distance from school - went out to 617 metres this year, FYI.

Any views on whether Graveney is worth a bit of a longer journey over other local schools with good results. I think I struggle with the selective stream aspect. What does that look like to kids in the ground? Do they get a message they’re special?
