Just read that headteachers find out the 11+ results before the kids and their families do, is this right in all areas and why?

It did happen in our prep school for independent schools' results in West London.

In some areas there is a head teachers review, this is before the exam results are released to parents::
Kent is unusual in operating a system of “Head teacher reviews”. A review can be submitted if a child has not qualified on score but was close to the pass mark or the Head teacher believes that the result was not representative of the child’s ability. The reviews take place before parents receive their child’s results.
The Head will submit a short report and samples of work which are then reviewed by a panel consisting of Primary and Secondary Head teachers or Deputy Heads. The review may result in the 11+ score being overturned and the child being deemed qualified.
