Some children not taken paper 2

I heard from an OOC parent that their child has yet to take paper 2 of this year's 11+. Does anyone know if this is true or not? Doesn't this not affect the general standarisation?

No idea, but it's theoretically possible if they have been ill for the whole time? I'm not aware of a "use by date" on the test.

If true, it won't affect the standardisation because the standardisation has already happened.

Possible, as anotherdad says, if the child has been ill.

There are late testers who have moved into the area right up until July.

as I understand it, this child was one of the OOC children who registered late and had to take the 2 papers on 2 Saturdays in November rather than with all the other OOC children who took it at half term. Surely this phase of testing has been completed?
