Hi Kitty, I'm pretty sure that a level 4 in maths and english is expected.

Hi,

I suggest you ring Mrs. Brakes in the school office, she's awfully nice. I'm sure she would be more than happy to answer your questions. My DS is in the second form, he told me a few kids have dropped out or are going to.

Good luck,

So not just anyone can be become a day pupil? That seems a little unfair. I'm very confused by all this information, of lack of it.

I wonder when this will be put into action? Will current boarders be aloud to become day students? Weekly boarding would be ideal for me, I doubt it will be an option though.

Back to the original topic , if I may ,even though I am enjoying the digression, I have just been told by the offspring that I have to take all their stuff home at half term as the rooms will be needed for the assessmentees to stay in . AAAAIIIIEEEEE! I have three at the school with a car that can ...

Does anyone know if the rules might change? I would love my DS to come home every weekend. If I were aloud to pick him up after Saturday classes and bring him back on Sunday evening, that would be brilliant. Bring on the change.

My DS is a second former and is freezing in his housey. Does anybody have some tips for staying cosy? Can he wear gloves and a hat with his uniform?

My DS sat the test last year in London. Good luck this Saturday.

Leave Weekends :?: :!: When I was young it was leave days and metal beds with boards and no springs. The youth of today don't know they're born blah, blah, blah... *Shakes head exits and joins JR and Neill in the box* :wink: On that note, my DS's mattress seemed like the springs were sticking throu...

As for the trackie bottoms, I thought the sports list info gave inside leg measurements? I may have remembered that wrong, but I seem to remember having to order a size up for my skinny but long-legged daughters so that they would be long enough? If so, have you checked that you got the right size,...
