Girls maths paper easier?
Hi there
Has anyone else heard that the girls maths paper is supposed to be easier than the boys?
I thought that introducing the maths paper was supposed to test the girls in all areas ,not make it easy so they all do well in it,what's the point in that?

Saturday's Maths Test
Hi,
My daughter found yesterday's test hard and said she had to guess a lot of the answers. Oh how I chuckled at that! Overhearing a lot of the other girls I got the impression a lot found it hard. I have to take solace in the fact my daughter was as prepared as she could have been and if it isn't to be then that's how it is. She worked hard and did her best that's all I can ask.
I feel a bit deflated today after all the nerves and begging and pleading to do the work for it! I even said let's do a test for old times sake - you can imagine how that went down!!

Hello All
Well that is that, no more can be done and now the dreaded wait (which has been preceeded by the parental exam post mortem!!)
My daughter found the maths quite tough. She managed to answer all but one of the questions but did guess on a few. My daughter's friend left out 10 of the questions, she found the VR a lot easier.
We overheard one girl saying she had left out 20 questions having been unable to finish so clearly a few of them found it challenging.
My daughter came back from school on Friday clutching a science SATS revision book they had given her, poor kid!
