11 Plus Exams Forum

Hello

Do children get scrap paper for their workings out in Bucks ?? At the momen DS usues the papers themselves for working out but the small writing loses them and causes silly mistakes !

No - mine wrote on the question paper which is allowed - not on the answer sheet though!

Shame that !

There is far more blank space on the real papers than there is on the IPS papers - look at the GL Assessment papers to get an idea of the layout.

Good luck!

This post really got me into action on vocab building for my then Y3 DS when I first read it in Feb last year; thanks for posting.

Hi i am a newbie to this forum my DS is in year 4 and i was wondering if these compound words are useful for the CEM Birmingham exams also the Queen Marys 11 plus exams next year?
Any advice would be appreciated as i am preparing some work for the summer, such as Bonds 10 mins test just to get him used to the different types of VR, NVR questions.
