only if you want to go to grammar school, you still have to take it to get in, they don't do it for every child like they used toLast edited by lynda66; 10-12-2008, 06:11 PM.Comment

My daughter took the 11 plus a couple of years ago and failed. She was the only one in her school to do it, they didnt give her any help, and all the kids have extra tuition for at least two years before, very expensive and not fair on those who cant afford it, It was at 9am on two following saturday mornings. It was her choice to do it, we knew she would struggle with the maths but wanted her to try.Gardening ..... begins with daybreak

I was supposed to take it, but the someone 'c*cked-up' and I didn't. My mate at the time passed with flying colours and gloated for years!
Anyway, just had a go and got 13/15 which was a surprise coz I'm no good at maths, but I do like puzzles. Ironically the only ones I got wrong were the ones I guessed coz I thought I was running out of time! (Silly c*w)
