Hello, I have just discovered an optional 'Reasons for Preference' section on the secondary school admissions form. It says 'Only use the space below if you wish to give any reasons for your preference for this school. These might include religious, philosophical or any other reasons. Please do not use this box to enter any exceptional, medical or social reasons or sibling (brother or sister) information.' Is anyone able to explain to me how this information is used in relation to the individual school's admissions criteria? If you have gone through the process, I would be grateful if you could tell me the type of information you put in that section, if you chose to complete it. Many thanks
