Special<br />

– a parents’ guide<br />

Choosing a school for your child, whether<br />

primary or secondary, is an important<br />

decision. In Essex, there is a wide choice<br />

for parents, including independent,<br />

grammar, specialist and faith schools.<br />

When making a decision, it will help<br />

to gather as much information as you<br />

can, make comparisons, read school<br />

prospectuses and Ofsted reports and<br />

visit open days. Most schools run open<br />

days or evenings at least once a year.<br />

Chelmsford County High School for Girls<br />

CCHS is a selective state school. Children who wish to enter<br />

Year 7 take an entrance test, which is designed to identify those<br />

girls who have the ability to thrive in an academic school.<br />

A child does not require tutoring to be successful in the test, in<br />

fact, they actively discourage it. They recommend that parents use<br />

the familiarisation paper available on the school’s website to inform<br />

their child of the type of questions she will be answering. The test<br />

distinguishes between an average<br />

ability child who has been tutored,<br />

and an able one who has not. It is<br />

the latter who will be successful<br />

and enjoy life at CCHS.<br />

Please note there is no fee<br />

required to sit the test. For more<br />
