Hi all

Am I going mad? I'm sure we had a thread to discuss those current Y5 who will be taking the exam in September. Has it disappeared, or am I having a moment?

In Trafford I understand they give out scores (this is our first time). Those scores can and probably will be different for each school that you have applied for even though you only sat one test, because they are all standardised against different cohorts of children.

But in Trafford the score can make a difference to your ranking in the oversubscription criteria because some schools use scores to rank out-of-catchment applicants.

I suppose in your area it depends whether the score actually makes a difference to your ranking or not? If it doesn’t, and it’s simply pass/fail to qualify and then all based on distance, the score isn’t a useful piece of information to you anyway.

If the score does make a difference then I’m surprised they don’t give it to you.

Still waiting for Trafford - does anyone know if Loreto and St Ambrose have come out yet? We didn’t go for those but can’t remember if they came out first in previous years…? Time seems to be moving slower the closer we get! Any chance it’s today??

I know exactly how you feel, have gone through this last year. Trafford result will be out today based on previous years. Loreto and Ambrose published theirs yesterday.

Trying not to obsessively check the portal…..

Apparently Trafford results out after 12.30pm today per message on the portal.

nothing showing on mine yet but the website is super slow…

No joy here with Trafford. Hope daughter isn't too disappointed because she gave it a good shot.
Best of luck everyone!

DS got good scores for Trafford but we are out of catchment for all schools, so will be biting our nails again until March!

We got the result we needed/wanted - now just waiting to hear back from all the friends….
Good luck to everyone still waiting/checking and feeling for everyone who doesn’t get the results they hoped for….
