Question about Central Foundation Boys and distance

[Mrsfrumble]

Hi. We live 2.6 miles from the school. I haven’t really considered CFB as, based on the offer distances of previous years, it seemed very unlikely that DS would be offered a place (especially as he’s likely to be band A or B, based on his performance at primary). It may be deadline-induced madness, but now I’m wondering if I’ve been too pessimistic and should put it down anyway. Does anyone know the furthest distance offer from the waiting list / post-March? Is the waiting list still ordered by bands? Thanks!

I have heard good things about CFS. Really improved over the years. You will have done well to get a place!

Did you put it down in the end? We got a place last year 1.46 miles away (Band A) and have chosen it over NBH

...should have said we were on their waitlist. You can find the distances here www.centralfoundationboys.co.uk/admissions

TheSunday, how are you finding Central? Are you happy with your choice?

yes. The school has exceeded our expectations. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Thanks Sunday, just pmed you.
