Three schools on our list have shifted 16+ assessments. Useful to have the moves in one place.

DD chose IB last September. Honest mid-year reflection from us: harder than expected, but she's a much better student than she was last June.

Looking at sixth form moves for DS. Lots of schools 'accept external applicants for sixth form' but in practice take maybe 4. What are you seeing?

She's strong in maths and further maths looks like a better fit than IB HL. Any parents whose children made this call and regretted it either way?
