Extra time for dyslexia/dyspraxia in Bucks 11+

Post by Bumblebeez »

Hello
Please can you let me know if your DC was awarded extra time in the Bucks 11+ this year for dyslexia or dyspraxia. Thanks!

Sorry can't help regarding Bucks (but am interested in any responses to your question). I thought you might find it useful to know what happened in some other areas.

In Bexley extra time (25%) was awarded for dyslexia. In Kent no extra time was awarded for the tests, but 10% was awarded for the writing task, which is only looked at if there is a Head Teacher review.

The approach seems to differ by area although the same documentation was submitted in each case. What was the case in Bucks?

Hello Mehere (Youthere?) :)
Lots of views but no answers, so I'm going to ask the question more broadly.
