11-plus
On the remote off chance you are having an unstressful season of good cheer, you can take ten minutes away from the spirit of goodwill to all men and try to pass the 11-plus. I did pass but the prospect of having my ass kicked by an eleven year old was disconcerting.
Thirty-two years after most grammar schools were abolished the 11-plus exam which controlled entry to them still divides opinion among parents and teachers. But how difficult was it?
Flea-readers are left to judge for themselves.

I design my tests with this in mind. Incredibly, over the years some students still manage to confound the odds.
