I only occassionly get an opportunity to whizz through all the new threads on this Forum and have noticed, too late, some kind people from other areas wishing good luck to those taking exams that week (I have experienced and appreciated their good wishes as well :lol: ).

Would it be possible to have a 'sticky' thread where it shows what dates 11+ exams are held in each of the 11+ areas and when they hear their results (which can be updated every year) then we all might be able to reciprocate with good wishes etc.

A great idea Ambridge. Obviously we have 2 and 8 October and 21st November on our minds but it would be good to share news from other regions.

Sure thing Ambridge. It would be a useful reference for everyone, too.

If people from other areas would like to post the dates for 2008/9 here - tests and results dates - I will create a Sticky in due course.

Don't forget to tell us where you are from!

Feeling quite confident though, looking through the Dorset section, we are the only ones taking the test lol (It's a bit quiet over in that section!)

Congratulations to your DD and to you Lancaster Girls! :D

The first result of the new "season", and it's a pass!

Thank you to everyone for the dates so far. I will start the Sticky once we have a few more areas.

Please could everyone who has already had testing in their area post back with th dates the test was taken? It will be useful to next year's parents.

Thanks!
