Obviously those with middle class parents will pay for tutors and the like. Plus, you could have been unlucky and not passed the test.

the primary schools will provide information on thatabout 10 out of 33 kids in my class got into grammarat least one got in through an appeal
i dunno what tips and tricks you're talking about. but it's pretty obvious they can appeal.
it actually isnt about class there; theyre more likely to let people in for having an older brother/sister already in the school, or living nearby
Pretty much. Are you going to sign the petition.
...a shithole full of thick sluts
Loopholes in the system and the like. Plus the appeal is judged by someone, who do you think they are most likely to let in, a working class person or an upper class person?
