Kent Test 11+ assessment results will be sent to families by KCC on Wednesday 15th October after 4pm. Due to changes in the test this year it is impossible to predict where cut off scores will settle. This year, more than ever, it will be essential that families put schools on their application form in the order that they genuinely prefer them regardless of other factors like historical scoring patterns which will not be reliable as a guide. All the indications are that scores are lower than in previous years so families should not be discouraged from naming TGS as a high preference if they feel that the school offers their girls the best environment for the next step in their education.

I think that the standardised scores are lower but not the raw scores. I suppose they are concerned loads of people won't apply when the new lower standardised score system breaks loose today. Not much time between now and 5 November to understand it unless KCC decides to do something like write about it clearly on their website and ask primary schools to draw it to parents' attention.

It's not likely really though is it? The whole thing is a trap for the unwary who don't even know that a lot of the questions are still pretty much like the ones in the GL familiarisation papers.
