My son got 117, there were extenuating circumstances of a medical nature of which we have evidence. Our appeal is at the end of the month.
When he left year 5 we were told that he would be one of the recommended to pass the 11+. So when he didn't we were suprised but we were more suprised that he had only been given a 3 for academic and 1 for attitude and hadn't been put on the OS at all. His year 5 teacher stands by her recommendation and has written a letter of support. His year 6 teacher has also written a letter of support but i am concerned as to how much weight will put on this '3'. We have 2 alternative 2006 VR scores of 125 and 123 which have also been put forward.
The head is new and new to the system but i don't want to sound unsupportive of her.
If anyone could advise that would be fab.
