Can older children get full marks in the Bucks yest?
A headmaster recently told a school in Bucks that children with a September birthdate could not get 141 because of standardisation. Has anyone else heard this?
I'm from Kent, where the full mark is 140 per paper. I was told that as my son had an October birthday, he would be very unlikely to receive this mark. Well, he did on 2 of the 3 papers and so did many others. There are so many rumours out there but I now know it's entirely possible! Interestingly, his friend has an August birthday and they were only 1 point apart on total aggregate score.
