Hi does anyone know for sure whether during the exam the kids are given a 5 minute and 1 minute warning they are running out of time on each section? For the Birmingham and Walsall tests please thanks

Hi, have just asked DS2 and he said that there is definitely a 5 minute warning, and he believes there was a 1 minute one. This is for both Birmingham and Walsall.

Thank you Helen will help my little one with her timings at least if they warn.

Just asked my DD. You are given a 5 min and a 1 minute warning. You can ask how long left too but obviously this wastes time on the questions
