How much time for the Creative writing ?

Hi there, As I said in a previous post my son is very able in maths but struggles with writing. I was wondering if someone could give me an idea of how much time they have to write their story/letter in the test. He is painfully slow and I would like to have an idea how much further we have to go to get up to speed. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi there
My DC sat the test in Nov and from memory I think there was about 45 mins for writing tasks. The whole thing, VR, maths and writing took around 3 hours, including a break, so probably that's about right. There were 2 writing tasks.
