The dreaded Moray House Test.
I had to do that before I left Rhodesia in 1953. In Rhodesia we stayed at Junior School until twelve years old. The result was that I went straight into Form 3 at grammar school in England.
For those that missed it Warmtoast has an excellent thread on overseas travel in the fifties.
