NFER VR

Post by fatbananas »

Hello,
A school I've been looking at says on its website that it's VR papers are written by NFER. Is this the same NFER that is now GL? I know, at least, I think, that NFER split into different companies, so wasn't sure if this school's 'NFER' VR paper should now be called 'GL' VR paper, or whether it was from a different part of NFER, that now does research and in-school testing at primary schools?

Any clarification would be extremely helpful :? :D

Sorry - a bit busy elsewhere!

Yes, the papers that were NFER are now GL.

NFER is National foundation for education Research which makes paper for 11+ entrance tests (which split with G)L. Now GL has it's own papers 5-8. GL Assessment is a leading independent supplier of learning materials.

Thanks Sally-Anne and Vasu! I realised that I was probably asking at a time when attention was understandably diverted elsewhere! Congratulations to you and your son, by the way Vasu! All the hard work - yours and his - has paid off! :D
