Hello everybody, starting a thread for parents with children who have applied for 10+ this year.

We had ‘very well’ and have an academic scholarship interview so I think it might mean you met the general standards but not the scholarship standard. Not something to worry about

Still nothing from W for us :(

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 16:50

Anyone else still waiting for W? Think it's probably a no for us.

Nothing for us too 😪

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 17:30

@PKSP It's so stressful isn't it? The interviews begin tomorrow.

PKSP · 12/01/2023 17:33

Yes for us and more for the kids too....my DS has this as first choice

AnnieH01 · 12/01/2023 17:59

We’ve heard from Trinity with a Y but not from W - still keeping fingers crossed about W

PollyG23 · 12/01/2023 18:05

Delighted- DS got an interview at W

Hope those waiting hear soon 🤞

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 18:08

@PollyG23 congratulations!

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 18:09

@AnnieH01 and @PKSP just us then

AnnieH01 · 12/01/2023 18:14

So stressful - just want to know either way. Well done to all those who have interviews with W

SAmum73 · 12/01/2023 18:19

We are also group J for Whitgift and no news yet.

PKSP · 12/01/2023 18:20

@PollyG23 - Congratulations and good luck for the interview

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 18:28

@SAmum73 we were J7

Daydreamscometrue · 12/01/2023 18:30

@AnnieH01 Yes agreed. Just want to know one way or the other. Well done to all those who've had a yes. They've obviously not yet started with the no's. Anyone been invited to this academic scholarship day they mention on the website?

That's amazing FreeButtonBee. When is DS' interview? And it's it morning or afternoon? Can you pick? I'm thinking about logistics for my DS when we get a date so I can be there (work etc)

For T academic scholarship, it was an email with 'this is the time' and it worked for us so we went with it. Not sure if you could change the time by calling up. Interview with a teacher and a chat with headmaster for the parents at the same time. No info on what it will be like and I'm keeping it pretty relaxed for DS. We shall see!

user1473290348 · 12/01/2023 19:17

That's great @FreeButtonBee. Best of luck with the interview and hope DS isn't nervous.

I'm still waiting for an interview date and time. Do they email only or do they ring you? I'm losing my mind going into my emails constantly to hit refresh and to check junk mail!

Assume that we won't be hearing anymore from W today. Really hope one way or another by tomorrow.

Melg100 · 12/01/2023 20:14

Is anyone sitting the 10 plus exams at trinity and whitgift as a practice run for the 11 plus exams at trinity and whitgift next year?

user1473290348 · 12/01/2023 20:19

That was our purpose @Melg100 . Are you looking at other schools too?

OP posts:
Melg100 · 12/01/2023 20:22

We sat the W and T 10 plus exams and have interviews for both. Someone mentioned to me though that if they offer us a place and we decline, we can’t apply for the 11 plus at the same schools next year. Don’t know if that’s the case??
