This is an invaluable resource for parents who are strategically preparing for their children's primary and secondary education. Katie has highlighted and explained the most important aspects and provided essential information to help parents get their children into the right secondary school. I particularly liked the inclusion of expert opinions. A must for all parents bewildered by the process and wanting the best for their children's secondary school career.
