Just out of interest how does the 12+ work. "we" scored 117 in the 11+ and looking at the posts here we are unlikely to succeed in the appeal : 3.1 rating and not really very positive comments from the HT. So already looking at the 12+ as the way forward.

Hi totpotpink

We are sitting 12+ in Feb 09. DS got 118/112 & failed appeal.

Only just submitted the application form for 12+ in time [Deadline this year was 24 Oct 08] :(
But received confirmation of his suitability to sit exam at the Grange on 16th Feb.
Just checking the flow chart and pass mark is still 121.
Test is 45 minutes and 85 questions.
There's information on Bucks admissions website & loads of info on here.

DS is working beyond abilities of peers in top class at current school. So both him & us believe this is the way forward & he's happy to give it another go.
Good luck with your decision.
