Hello
Please can you let me know if your DC was awarded extra time in the Bucks 11+ this year for dyslexia or dyspraxia. Thanks!

Sorry can't help regarding Bucks (but am interested in any responses to your question). I thought you might find it useful to know what happened in some other areas.
In Bexley extra time (25%) was awarded for dyslexia. In Kent no extra time was awarded for the tests, but 10% was awarded for the writing task, which is only looked at if there is a Head Teacher review.
The approach seems to differ by area although the same documentation was submitted in each case. What was the case in Bucks?

Hello Mehere (Youthere?)
Lots of views but no answers, so I'm going to ask the question more broadly.
