North / East London 11+ for Sept 2022 entry

Hi everyone, I may have missed it but cannot see a thread on this year’s 11+ for North London so thought I’d start one. Is anyone else waiting? Good luck everyone! And for anyone who sat the Forest exam this week, I hope it went well for your child.

Thank you for your reply. I haven't received an email about the date and time yet. When did you receive the email?

MissScotland · 17/01/2022 15:48

We had a 7+ Interview couple of years back, they are trying to figure out you are serious about application and supporting parents for dd - no complex stuff

Does anyone know what the Habs interview with parents consists of?

@Justanothergirl19 @purpleturtle1
Waiting for Habs too (tomorrow). Expecting SHHS something next week.
This is nerve racking!

Justanothergirl19 · 13/01/2022 14:57

When are you expecting news from SHHS? Anyone waiting for Habs tomorrow?

purpleturtle1 · 13/01/2022 14:55

@MissScotland hello! Fingers crossed we get good news : )

MissScotland · 13/01/2022 14:42

@purpleturtle1 we are :-)

Jane077 · 13/01/2022 10:17

Thanks @Manchester7 DS is not exactly super talented at sport, but he's a very rounded boy, loves trying out new sport and extracurricular stuff, enjoys music and drama. He's an easy going, academic-middling, happy boy and I think Mill Hill would be a good fit and he'd really enjoy all the extras they offer. Are you hoping for Forest? Good luck with that. That's another well-rounded happy school from what I hear

purpleturtle1 · 13/01/2022 10:04

Anyone else waiting on SHHS?

@Jane077

We're waiting, too. DS didn't get Highgate, which, like *@Manchester7* was no big surprise. We're hoping for Mill Hill. He also did Wetherby and UCS. ps I remember you *@Manchester7* from a few years back when my eldest was doing this whole 11+ malarkey. Hope you're well. Sorry that you, like me, are having to go through this again!
I hear good things about Mill Hill. Is your DS sporty, @Jane077? Hope he gets in and that the wait is not too stressful.

Yes they did. Just wondering if others here are in the same boat.

Justanothergirl19 · 12/01/2022 20:18

No, sorry…did they not give the information you were looking for today?

MissScotland · 12/01/2022 19:33

Anyone else applying for a music scholarship at NLCS?

MissScotland · 12/01/2022 15:50

Same here. Waiting for a date now.

L0ndonGirl · 12/01/2022 15:47

Yes - I can see they might have got questions querying why a DD hadnt then got an offer if they did “very well” in their exams. Such a horrible process!
