If you apply to a number of the less prestigious places - not very difficult at all, any child who's outside say the bottom handful of kids in a typical state primary class will usually get in somewhere.

If you focus on the most prestigious places - quite difficult. Would need to be in the top handful of kids in a typical state primary class and prepare well for testing etc.

Generally across the board - has recently been more difficult, as noted above. 

Emanuel - much more difficult than it used to be, as noted above.

Emmanuel is a nice school, but it’s not overly academic and it’s not full either

where on earth did you get that information from that Emanuel isnt full??  its the most oversuscribed school we have very nearby especially for boys where there isnt much choice for them.

How on earth do you know that?

It’s not true 🤣🤣🤣🤣
