son failed 11+ for private school near us, its the only one nearby and the only one we applied for. His current prep school goes up to 13, so we still have chance to go for the 12+ to get the option of then being allowed to do the 13+. This school has a high academic standard, and my son is somewhere below average, but certainly nowhere near the botton ranking in his year - approx top of the bottom third.
At 13 there are few places left, and I can think of only one other school as back-up, for 13+, although it is a good long way away.
Im getting worried, he may fail the 12+
Any experience of this? Can head teachers interven for you, if you are left without a place?
