omg - I think I've messed up the 11+ application - what do I do?

12 replies

Pendu · 07/07/2016 09:20

I cannot find a phone number or anything to call them...
In our area 11+ counts for 4 schools and I cannot see any email or evidence with regards to my application (which has now closed)

I have no idea what to do as it was online submission and I have no confirmation for this ...

Anyone have any ideas ? SadSadSadSad

Which LA? Try School Admissions on their website.

Pendu · 07/07/2016 09:40

It's berkshire - they sort of group together . Would phoning the LA help? I am not sure who "organises" it but now I'm terrified I didn't do it correctly and they do not accept late applications at all. I miss the days of paper Sad

I have emailed 2 of the schools - I'm such an idiot to not check sooner

I called one school who says even if on their IT system they find evidence of an attempt of submission there is nothing I can do about it Sad

I cannot believe an IT hiccup has ruined DSs chances Sad

Did you have to pick a 'preferred test centre' to take the exam at - if so, try contacting them. Here you make a central application but have to nominate a school to take the exam at.

Was there no email confirmation at all?

Pendu · 07/07/2016 14:31

There is no confirmation email but I thought maybe info would come in the post and have now chased it up.... and I did it via a college computer and the IT desk here says history is wiped every time we log out , so I cannot prove it via my computer history.

I think I picked an exam centre - It was about 2 months ago so u can't be sure, but if I did then I know which one I would have chosen and it's them who I have called.

Might be worth putting a post on the Berks thread of 11 plus forum

dataandspot · 07/07/2016 19:04

I had this happen to me because I have a hotmail account. They had the record of my application.

Hope it's the same for you op!

What's 11plus forum?

Pendu this is the eleven plus berkshire forum. Hope you get some useful answers.

Pendu · 07/07/2016 20:12

Just posted. - fingers crossed. Apparently a lot of people miss the deadline and claim the form got lost so that explains why the school seemed abit miffed when I said that, though it's really true ! Shock I'm going to have to say a lot of prayers this week Sad
