This is the advice on the the main site......
If your child is taken ill during the test, ensure that the invigilator has made a note of it. Try to get written confirmation after the test from the school or admission authority that they have a record of what happened.
I don't know the wirral area but would think that should your child not reach the cut off then you would have to appeal - You would need to get as much evidence of being the standard required and the mitigating circumstances would speak for themselves. That is why you should ensure that you have noted in writing to the school what happened and asking for the confirmation.
