Hi nice mum,

Quite a few schools on your list but the prep should be roughly the same . I do know of oys who have sat exams for Eltham, Colfes and Trinity . You need to ensure DS is working at a reasonable eleven in maths , English , science and French . If your DS is working well in his current school , he should be fine with the exams as I am told they cover the key stage 3 syllabus . It would be a good idea to also download some past papers from other indies .

We live in south east London, colfe's and Eltham are the choices locally. My son did 11+ for Eltham. But all my friends comment Colfe's as an easier choice.
