Well done supermum2, I bet you're both so relieved.

My DS got an offer for our Indie too, so we can relax a bit now...

Only 1 more week to go for national offer day!

Aaargh!

P.S. Can anyone tell me how to do the 'smilies'?

When you are creating a post there are a set of smilies on the left. If you click on one of the smilies it appears in the post. :mrgreen:

PS You can only see the smilies in preview mode or once you've posted, otherwise it just looks like :word:

Thank you mitasol! :D

Hope this works... :wink:

Only one week to go, can't believe I'm spending so much time on this forum...but it's so nice to know there are people like me out there, with no nails or hair left, who've drunk the cupboard dry and puffed on 100's of imaginary ciggies waiting for D Day... :cry:

Not long now, once more to the breach dear friends!!

Hello veryworriedmum

The exams for whitgift were VR English and Maths unfortunately I was not provided with any scores, I wonder if any one else received these?

Other children in the class did not pass the first stage and were told they did not make he pass mark. They were given grades only when they rang up for feedback. I hope this helps.

:cry: Aaaaargh!! :cry:

Just tried to get on to Tiffin School website to see if any results posted yet (yeah, I know....but just humour me...gone officially mad with the interminable waiting...), and cannot access their site as they've got a 'malware' suspicious virus so our computer won't let me access it!!!!

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Do u think it's finally happened and an 11+ parent finally lost it???

Tiffin girls website OK.

Gulp!
