Practice 11-plus mental arithmetic tests set at Caradog primary school, 1956

from Colin Rees

These papers were set by Percy H. Escott who taught 'Standard V’ at Caradog Junior School in the 1950s. He was a past pupil of both
Caradog, in his day called The Town Council School, and of ABCS. He entered the Trecynon school in 1916 and left in 1921 after
gaining his CWB School Certificate. Many of his ex-pupils will remember his characteristic hand writing
that can be seen in the second practice paper below.
