http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_7478000/7478154.stmDid get them all right, but I couldn't understand the second question (worked it out by eliminating the unlikely/probable trick answers rather than being able to follow the question). Not sure at 11 I would have been canny enough to work out the first question the easy way.
Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing? (John 7:51)

2nd question is really unclear. They mean 7 pillars of bricks, with the smallest having 9, the next one along having 10, the next having 11... and so on. That's probably even more unclear than they explained it!

Grammar school for me Just as well since I went to one ("direct grant" actually) but I really struggled with the last one Odd one out is 23, sequence should be 1 (+8) 9 (+7) 16 (+6) 22 (+5) 27 (+4) 31 (+3) 34 ie: 22 instead of 23

I couldn't understand how you could have a problem with question 2. It was clear.
I got to Grammar school again, but for the life of me I can't imagine I thought that carefully the first time around!
[Cautionary note: I need to remind you all that I am probably the only member of the forum who attended Vicky Pollard's school - Cotham. I insist that it was better in those days.]

Must admit, when I first saw the questions I thought they must be today's A-level maths exam.

8/8 ...and I went to a scummy school for common people! Anyone going to post their scarecrow story? Mine started, "There I was, minding my own business, when along comes this Dorothy girl with a stupid little dog..."

You have an acute sense of irony. That would be his magnetic personality.
