Does anyone know when the results of the ISEB pre-test are expected?

Their info pack states next Mon 14th as results for the pretest, written exams on Jan 16th.

Received invitation email on last Friday.

Ah, we've not heard anything so that probably means DS has not been selected.

[Pl1688]

the timeline on the WUS website states email invitations for 2nd round is Mon 14th (tomorrow). We also have not heard anything but i wouldn't rule it out yet.

[Gabriel]

I think you will get an email in any case.
And it may take few days to send out all emails.

Oh sorry, my DS application is 13+....

Really sorry of the confusion.

Just curious, on another thread you said your child was at state school. If you are applying for 13+, what are you intending to do for years 7 & 8? Grammar school then switch to Westminster for year 9? The 13+ prospectus also states that boys who are at primary school should apply for 11+ as the 13+ process is for those who can remain in prep until they are 13.

My DS scored highly enough for QE that he should obtain a place next March but even I would have concerns about whether QE would prepare him well enough for entry to Westminster at year 9 (if 13+ was my chosen route) given the differences in curriculum.

Yes my son is in state school at moment.

We applied state grammar schools, 11+ independent schools and 13+ independent schools this year.

So Y7/8 will depend on the outcome. I have a friend was in the same situation, they got a 13+ offer two years ago, and the senior school assigned a local independent school for his son to study in Y7/8.
