Pass mark

Please can anyone explain to me the disparity in the apparent pass mark for the 11+ tests nationally???
Torbay LEA states that a candidate is successful if they obtain a minimum of 50% of available marks in both the English and Mathematics tests (as well as obtaining the VR score of the 100th candidate).
This contrasts starkly with information about all the other LEAs I have been delving into on this forum. Most parents talk about minimum results of 75 per cent and upwards.
Can somebody please clarify this??? Thanks.
