From the Wikipedia article

Bristol Cathedral Choir School is a mixed gender non-selective musical secondary school with academy status, in the Cabot area of Bristol, England. Until 2008 it was Bristol Cathedral School, part of Bristol Cathedral, in the centre of the city. The choristers of the cathedral are educated at the school, which has a strong musical tradition. The school is a day school and has no boarders. It admits some pupils each year based on musical aptitude, as well as admitting probationary choristers. That is the school's only form of selection, and all other pupils are chosen at random via a lottery system.
