11+ trivia question
When did Bucks bring forward their main 12+ selection test to 11+? The 12+ was the standard transfer time during the late 1970's and 1980's.
And did this 12+ transfer time supersede an even earlier 11+ transfer time....in say the 1960's?

Presumably 12+ is no longer an option (to me it would seem preferable to 11+)? 14+ as being adopted in NI - see below - probably even better!
