A RECORD number of pupils put Passmores Academy down as their first choice school for September 2022.

The number of first choice preferences was 324. That compared to 239 last year. An increase of 85.

Over 700 applied in total to attend the Tracyes Road school.

We prefer not to frame this as a first second third etc but the tables below give a feel for where parents are hoping and wanting their children to go. However, we also have to take on board how many places are available.
