Advice please - Applying to SWHerts and DAO

Hi, despite notifying during registration that my DC is sitting both DAO and Swherts , we have been allocated VR tests at both. I found this out by accessing the swherts parent portal alongside our DAO tear letter.
I have emailed swherts to ask them why we have been allocated VR and maths at both schools. The reply was not helpful. It just said Maths would be sat at both schools as DAO runs its own maths. Which I know already. They didn’t address or confirm that my DC has been registered to sit the VR at both.
Is there anyone else I should contact?

Contact admissions at DAO.

The office is manned during the holidays.

There is no option to sit the VR at SW Herts if you are applying to DAO. In order to get into the second round at DAO you have to sit the VR at DAO and not at SW Herts.

So once you have sat the VR at DAO you will only attend the Maths at SW Herts.

There is over a week between the two dates so you will be able to confirm to SW Herts after you sit on 1st September that you have already sat the paper and will only be sitting the Maths. DG
