Just phoned City - some scholarship interview letters have already gone out, but they couldn't tell me which age group. Suspect we'd already have heard, and scholarship essential here so think that's us out of the running for City. Ach well, reduces the tension!

According to their timetable (http://www.clsb.org.uk/key-dates-1/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) 13+ should have been sent yesterday, others today!

If I don't hear today on scholarship, I won't yet give up hope (10+)!

Which age is yours?

yes!

COM - we're 11+. I got the impression that perhaps the scholarship letters were sent out before the rest - though it's completely possible I got that wrong.

Me too. But at least I'd know, so ... I just tried - but no pick-up. I suspect they are innundated and screening calls at the very least.
:lol:
