Advice re review

[southbucks3]

Hello

I am also getting no where fast towards a remark and analysis..2 emails, 2 phone calls. I am beginning to think about going to aylesbury with the cash in my hand. How much consideration for being busy should i give them?

Also nervous about going straight to appeal, as my son's teacher is worried about there being far more success at review last year than appeal percentage wise, i am assuming this may be because most of the appeals in 2012 had already filtered through the reviews unsuccessfully. She is v v supportive though, and we really need to present his case in person to ensure it is fully understood.

Hi Southbucks, it sounds as if we are on the horns of similar dilemmas.

The advice I had re getting a re-mark by mailing admissions is, I think, wrong.

It is available online - stumbled across it the other day when trawling the Bucks website. I have had a quick look but can't find it again.

Sorry I can't be of more help at the moment. Perhaps someone else will have a link.

Does this help?

Could I just check that you're not copying and pasting the link? That won't work with a shortened link.

Here is the link in full:

If you click on it, it ought to work!

Thank you...no it wasnt a copy paste thing, it was apparently their server is 'having intermittent problems' as the nice lady told me. I literaly managed to complete it seconds ago before your post, phew! The frustrating thing was when i looked last week without my cash card in hand, it worked perfectly every time. The last time the bcc server had probs when i tried it i was waiting for the snowy day school closures list...it drove the kids bonkers not knowing for sure, in the end we listened to the wireless gor the info.

Edit: twenty mins later i have replies to both e mails too! Its like blooming buses!

Hi Etienne, just had WISC IV test results back and I'm afraid they are solid rater than spectacular.

Verbal comprehension 104 Average
Perceptual Reasoning 110 High Average
Working Memory 113 High Average
Processing Speed 115 High Average
Full Scale IQ 114 High Average

On balance, we are happy that we did the test as it has thrown up some interesting insights into DD. As you suggested earlier, her good sats scores may be a result of application and environment.

Sorry to hear it didn't deliver the 'right' evidence - but I agree that these reports are often helpful in that they provide interesting insights.

Hi, first post here...

What would the "right" result be in terms of Wisc IV figures? would it matter if the test was taken 4 years ago (child then aged 6)? Can these results really help to tip the balance? Thanks.
