FHS NW1 and SHHS- interview offers 11+?

[clevud]

Do you know when these schools are likely to send out interview invitations?

@clevud. Ah me too plus plus.

We had a ceremonial burning of all 11+ stuffs at the weekend - cathartic it was too.

Thanks for diluting the misery-wait. :)

Had hoped to let dd know pre pick up. Hey ho.

@WildJango that's hundredsd of pouds of BR NVR booklets

@WildJango I repost - hundreds of pounds of VR and NVR booklets

Clevud This was used ones - and notes and scribbles and workings out and old papers.

Clevud ...as dd did some none CEM exams: Forest and CLSG for example

We're still waiting to hear from SHHS. Re-reading their email it's not completely clear that they email if the answer is no. Does anyone know? TIA

When i spoke with the registrar earlier this week she said “we will let you know by Thursday whether or not your dd has been invited for an interview”- so i assume it involves emailing everyone?

Thanks Paribus - it would seem needlessly cruel just not to tell people, but it's getting quite late in the day ...

SHHS delayed to the weekend!

Just got an email that we will know "by the weekend" - the waiting continues. Grim

Surely “by weekend” means they will let us know tomorrow??

Any news?

According to another site it's because they didn't get the results back from the central markers for the consortium papers when they were expecting to.

From our experience, they're usually pretty efficient and sensitive to needs of parent/child.

It appears that SHHS are calling those invited for an interview???? Calling 🙈🙈🙈?????

?

Agree with what’s been said - as they’re selecting who to interview they depend on results getting to them on time but the results were delayed from CEM so they haven’t been able to do the selecting

Any tips re to FHR interviews pls? Thanjs

Does anyone know how the North London Collegiate interviews went? Also, when are SHHS interviews?

Did anyone get any news from Francis Holland about an interview yet?

Yes we have received an invitation letter on Saturday via post. (FH Regents Park)

What's the logic behind the order of interviews? Do they start with higher scores?

They do it in batches of primary schools - my kids' school is a state primary that rather unfortunately is next in the alphabet to two Hampstead girls' preps which meant it was a bit intimidating for them as they were surrounded by gaggles of girls who knew each other.

On the other hand, they stood out in their polyester fleece.

@PatienceVirtue thanks! that's nice to know, I though they'd start with the highest scores, which maybe is the case for other schools. Definitely my DD will stand out in her polyester sweater with a distinctive colour uses by hundreds of other state schools.
