Not strictly 11+, but does anybody have any knowledge or experience of the OSH scholarship test? Or any knowledge of any means testing applied to "up to 90%" of boarding fees?

hi I can help slightly in that the test is sat on a computer and in the past few years if you are in the top 30 then you stand a chance of getting a place even though only 16 places are available BUT dont know any thing about fees ...

Thanks, I'd noticed the computer bit with some trepidation (if it doesn't involve shooting at something our eldest is a bit lost at sea when it comes to technology) and my wife reckons its set by U of Durham but I don't know where she found that (may be confusing it with KE?). We're not local so we only need to do the test for a scholarship IF he gets through interview because we can't afford the boarding fees. Which makes it a real problem to decide where to put it on the list given it's his no.1 choice, curse him.
