AD, how old are "Year 11" students? Here, in 11th grade, they're 16 or 17.
I feel bad for anyone under 65 to be named Harriet.

I don't really see anything wrong with this, given that most exams are still taken by hand. Some people just don't write with a pen or pencil as quickly as others do, and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to who ends up a faster or slower writer. As long as the words make sense within the context of so-called "txtspeak", I don't see where it's any different that allowing the use of the & symbol in place of "and".
