"To be honest? I've heard variable reports." Guppy says.
"Coral took five lots of entrance exams, and got just one waiting list place, poor kid. There's a bit of a rumour that Holby High ends up with the girls who didn't pass the exams for the other four. Not good for the self-esteem of the kids, really.
But it looked like it's still a very decent school when we went on the open day, and it seems to do reasonably well in the league tables. If she's not happy there, she can always take the exams for the others again next year."
