Re: Wandsworth (11+) test

It still says 5 Dec on the council website so I think that can be taken as confirmed

One of my children took the test a few years ago and they only gave us the location/timing information 4 days before the test

You don't have to live in the borough to apply but the council won't use your BTC address until you are actually living there

Re: Holy Ghost School

The council website has the details of how previous year's places were offered
In general you would want to be under 500m from the school - there are only 30 places and sometimes there are up to 20 siblings

Other schools to consider - St Mary's Clapham or St Anselms Tooting Bec
