CLSB 10 plus

[Umisan]

results are due out today. Anyone received the letter as yet?

[Kipperfish]

Nothing yet. Best of luck.

[gazzag]

Yes. Delighted that son has been invited for interview.

[Umisan]

no for us, I am afraid.

I know of two students so far that have been invited for interview. I wonder how many boys sat?

I also know of a student who was in the top ten of the 10 plus at Trinity Croydon this year. It would be interesting to compare the difficulty level of the two exams and also 10 plus at Bishops Storkford College which is today.

I think 10 plus is a fantastic idea for those who have outgrown their primary school and might find themselves being unchallenged in Y6. DG

I don't know for sure, but think it was over 200. That's a bit higher than the figure I was given for previous years, which was about 160.

[Daogroupie]

Thank you. Do we know how many approx they are interviewing and how many spaces they are offering?

[Kipperfish]

My son has been asked for an interview. In previous years they appear to have interviewed around 80 boys for 40-odd places.

[Daogroupie]

So it is a 50% chance at this stage. Very good odds! DG

Does anyone know roughly how many academic scholarships are given at 10+? And if potential scholars interviewed by the Head? It seemed that two parallel sets of interviews took place this morning - one with the Head, the other with two teaching staff. Thanks!
