February half term, at that.
What about people who have already booked holidays - it is only 6 months away after all? And of course, a holiday is not a good enough reason to miss the test.
A lousy decision in my opinion, especially with what appears to be so little notice.

It does not give much time for a school to get to know the new Y7s to write a report ...
It would be interesting to know when this was decided ....

Hi Patricia
When would you suggest children should start preparing for 12+ given this news?
Thanks
