SCHOOLS IN WEST BLETCHLEY
In the forthcoming school year, parents' preference is the primary consideration
in school place allocation. If you want to be sure of entry to the nearest
school it should have been given as your specific preference. In comparing
schools it is suggested that several year's performance tables are used
particularly in smaller schools. Variation with area does not necessarilly
reflect the quality of the teaching. Of the Combined and Middle schools
below the performance in Key Stage 2 Level 4 attainment for 2001
shows that Holne Chase, St. Thomas Aquinas and Rickley were above the national
and the local average points scores. Cold Harbour was above the local average
but below the national. Abbeys, Chestnuts and Wellsmead were below both
averages.
