Secondary Schools - Overview
Listed alphabetically in 3 categories are the secondary schools
chosen by residents in Haworth Cross Roads and Stanbury.
First category are schools that are considered as feeder schools;
the ones parents use most and the local primary school have links
to. Next, other secondary schools chosen by residents, some are
with a different local authority. Third local authority grammar
schools, which require an entrance examination.
The process of selecting a secondary school begins in the Autumn
term of primary school - year 6 when you will be asked to fill
in a Common Application Form giving your preferred choices of
schools. You will be notified of which school has been chosen
in the following March. Bradford's
