11 Plus Exams Forum

I have been advised to write to the school before my son sits the 11+ this October as a) he is a year above the allocated age as he was put back a year due to ill health and will now be penalised heavily for this and b) because a lot of personal home problems have cropted up during the summer and have caused huge stress on the whole family.

I have NO idea how to put in writing the above concerns without sounding either as if I am winging or desperate, any help will be gratefully received as my sons head can be a bit dragon like (sorry) and dont want to upset her if I can.
