We are in the fortunate position of having completed rebuilding and refurbishment work at all our secondary schools, so teaching facilities are second to none.\u00a0\u00a0 More students are already coming to us with a 12 per cent rise last year of students entering year seven.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI urge parents not to rely on the historic reputation of schools when making their decision about which schools to apply for. They should take a look for themselves at how things have changed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The deadline for secondary applications is Sunday 31 October 2010 with most schools offering open days or evenings.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of secondary school open evenings are taking place over the next fortnight.
