My summer born child had a deferred entry.
Now 11 plus is looming I’m wondering how age standardisation will apply. Child will turn 11 in July before test.
Thanks

It is usually by age in years and months although it could be years, months and days. The test providers do not tend to give specifics on their age standardisation methodology.

Edit to add - check the admissions policies for any schools you are considering. They may give further details for out of age applications. You can usually find these on the school websites under a heading of school admissions.
