For the benefit of we parents of year 5 children whose kids are going to attempt the King Edwards exam next November without the benefit of formal tutoring, are any parents of current year 6 children able to give any feedback on what was in this years exam(s)? I gather that there was a re-sit for those children who were sick for the "main" exam, I think that re-sit has happened now (today?). Any help much appreciated. Thanks

The "sick" exam is next week so you will meet a wall of silence till that's over!

Oh sorry about that, I thought it was today. If any parents can post any useful information next week after the re-sit, that would be appreciated. Thanks.

Are the resits over?

If so any advice, e.g. books, topics, etc for the KE exam /QM or Sutton Girls exam?

hello,
my understanding is that sittings for seriously ill kids or those just moved into area are still happening. because of that it may be hard to get info until february! but to be honest it was similar to last years - although apparently easier ! my son says queen mary's was harder.

Edited by Moderator (Sally-Anne) - a little too much information if the previous poster is correct in saying that tests may continue until February.
