Trinity/Whitgift/Dulwich College 10+/11+ 2021

Hello,

as mentioned countless times, I found the previous years' threads very useful, so it is now time to start this year's.

DS sat the 11+ reasoning test at DC yesterday. He'll sit the morning slot at trinity and we are awaiting confirmation of assessment date from Whitgift.

DS is remarkably relaxed so far. I, on the other hand, am a little apprehensive about the next few weeks.

How are everyone else's DSs feeling before "the storm"?

Friday is inset day for T so staff will be at school..they might start to call tomorrow.

Seeline · 06/01/2022 11:59

Plenty will be in today at T as they are doing their student covid testing before school starts on Monday.

Hi all, is anyone here waiting on 10 plus Whitgift

Itsallpurple · 07/01/2022 09:52

Has anyone heard or spoken to Trinity for 11+ results? Getting a bit concerned as I believe the no emails come out from Monday... The wait is not fun!

Cantquitebelievewhatitscometo · 07/01/2022 10:05

We have not heard anything either and also getting ants in my pants. Re reading the last communication from T, they say the candidates not being interviewed will be emailed the week commencing Monday, so that could be a long week. This is stressful. Sympathies…

suchnonsense · 07/01/2022 10:22

We're waiting for Whitgift 11+, which is also nerve wracking! Apparently candidates not selected for interview will be emailed "as early as possible" which is wonderfully non-specific..... interviews are scheduled to start on Monday so presumably some have already been invited.

I think I'd find this a lot easier if they gave exact dates of notifications!

Sweetnhappy1 · 07/01/2022 11:58

DS got an academic enrichment invitation to Whitgift for scholarship assessment which is next week, the email came yesterday.

Cantquitebelievewhatitscometo · 07/01/2022 12:40

Good luck to your little boy, Sweetnhappy, fingers crossed for the rest of us

Sweetnhappy1 · 07/01/2022 13:02

Thank you! Fingers crossed for everyone waiting, best of luck xxx

Itsallpurple · 07/01/2022 13:18

Thanks Cantquitebelievewhatitscometo & suchnonsense - the wait continues...Wish you luck!
That's amazing news Sweetnhappy1, hope it goes well!

suchnonsense · 07/01/2022 13:40

Wonderful news, sweetnhappy1 - hope it goes well. And fingers crossed for the rest of us!

jac108 · 07/01/2022 15:06

We are also waiting for 11+ at Trinity. Getting really anxious. So if you've applied for sports scholarship and haven't heard anything from them by Friday you have to contact them. Is this correct? As sports assessments are on Monday 17th. Getting confused which isn't hard x

August001 · 07/01/2022 15:34

Still waiting for results from T and DC.. the weekend is going to be very long…

northerngoldilocks · 07/01/2022 16:23

Don't imagine DC will be before Monday. There were boys sitting 11+ there yesterday (covid catch up)

Paribus · 07/01/2022 16:25

DC said that they will be sending emails on Monday.

Cantquitebelievewhatitscometo · 07/01/2022 16:34

Whitgift have emailed to invite for interview, anxiety halved. Good luck to all and have a good weekend

Sailingby · 07/01/2022 18:02

4 years ago T contacted us on a Saturday to invite DS for interview...
Good luck to everyone - I remember the anxiety levels well!

Sweetnhappy1 · 07/01/2022 18:07

@Cantquitebelievewhatitscometo Yay! Best of luck to your DS!

Goliathma3 · 08/01/2022 14:45

Hallo!! I have just been directed here, so anxiously waiting that I can't even enjoy my weekend :( ridiculous really

boarding23145 · 08/01/2022 14:55

No one I know has heard back from T, so there's still hope! Maybe they will continue to call next week and send the rejection emails towards end of week

We luckily heard back from every single one of the boarding schools on the date they promised. I hate vagueness!

Goliathma3 · 08/01/2022 15:34

@boarding23145 thanks thats the one we are anxious about DS keeps asking too as he felt he did well. Oh well keeping everything crossed for next week

SCK2012 · 08/01/2022 16:07

We are waiting for a response from whitgift for DS-10 plus.Has anyone heard from them ?

Radmumsie · 08/01/2022 16:23

Nothing yet just waiting anxiously

Saragood · 08/01/2022 21:27

Hi everyone ,
Joining you all in this painful waiting.
Received interview invite for whitgift nothing yet for T.

KillingEvenings · 08/01/2022 21:47

The email I have says

"If your son has not done well enough in the examinations to be called for interview, then you will be sent an email week commencing Monday 10th January."

So we may have a full week more of nail biting :(

Still, I'm very glad for this thread and knowing I'm not the only one waiting.
