Help! Missed the 11+ deadline (Wirral Local Authority)

[souting]

I am absolutely kicking myself, I missed the 31st May deadline to apply to the Wirral Local Authority for the 11+ examination.

Is anyone else in this situation and what have you done about it? If there is anything to be done (besides moving to the borough)?

Any words of advice would be much appreciated.

I’d ask on the elevenplusexams forum, there’s some very knowledgeable posters on there.
I recall a mumsnet thread about 5 yrs ago, poster was in Yorkshire and the dad lied and said he’d sorted it and hadn’t. It was a very early deadline too. From what I recall she got it sorted and DC sat. I think fact exam hadn’t taken place helped, cut off was administrative only.

Thank you so much

An acquaintance was in this position and I understand they weren’t allowed to sit. I don’t know how hard they pushed.

Have you checked if the catholic selective schools deadlines have passed? They run separate timelines I understood.

I suggest you contact their administration office today and see what they say. We are in Birmingham and I know that the answer would be no especially this long after the deadline but the only way to find out is ask. They may have some flexibility but usually these deadlines are just that unless there's a really good reason like severe illness or death of a parent

I'm sorry I can't give you anything more hopeful - perhaps the Wirral will prove more accommodting though.

You've not missed ALL the deadlines though - it looks like there's still Blue Coat, St. Anselms and Upton Hall so you may at least want to get those in. 11+ deadlines
