DS did the 11+ last year. They had a whole group of them together and were given activities to do in groups on iPads. One by one, they were called in for their interview.

Poor chap misheard the Drama teacher and thought she was a 'Drummer'. So spent 10 minutes asking her questions about timpani and percussion. Needless to say, he didn't get in Confused. He ended up at KGS and we're really happy.

Thank you DIN that helps - In the end your ds got the place that's for him and is happy there. I'm trying to think like this - that if he doesn't get this - it just wasn't the place for him. Thanks again for responding
