Can anyone help us? My daughter and I are getting in a panic about the change of examining body in Warwickshire. I understand that University of Durham has been responsible for Solihull/ Birmingham area for a while, so wondered if anybody would have a copy of the sample paper/questions that is sent out 2 weeks prior to the test. Would you be prepared to share this with us (or any useful guidance about style of papers in past years)?

Hi, can't be of specific help, but suggest you post on the Birmingham section of this forum and also read previous posts on there as there is a wealth of info. about the tests. It is the KE foundation who use the Univ. of Durham and posters fm and KenR are particularly knowledgeable.

Do hope this is of some help to you and your daughter.
Regards, Clarendon

Warwickshire is a different local authority with its own exams, as is Solihull where there are no selective state schools so no 11+. The detailed info you need will depend on where you live and what schools you have in mind
