Our Response

Northamptonshire County Council is not the admissions authority for this school and they deal with their own admissions, the criteria applied can be found using the link below. And as such the County Council does not hold the information that you have requested. However, we believe the School for Boys may be able to provide this information if they hold it and as above I have provided the contact details for them, which you can access via the link below.
