11+ Late Examination Slough Consortium

[Trupti]

Hi,

Can you please confirm what will be the month for 11+ late examination of Slough consortium grammar school?
Will it follow the same CEM pattern?


Thanks,
Trupti

Welcome. I’ve moved you to Berkshire.

The main late test date for those who were ill has been and gone.
There might be a later date for those moving into the area but I have no idea when the date is as I suspect it depends on how many and when.

I suspect it would only be for those with a legitimate reason for sitting late E.g. moving into the area. Any application would still be considered as late I think.

I don’t think they have a late sitting because they are so oversubscribed and they don’t want to encourage “enterprising” parents from presenting their DC a few months late in the hope that the LEA might find a magical extra place down the back of the sofa....
there’s a single illness-resit date, and that’s it.

Otherwise when the waiting list is arranged kids on the waiting lists could be bumped by late sitters which again I don’t think they want.

In-year spaces are rare, but are dealt with by individual schools (see their admissions criteria) not the consortium.
