A curiosity for learning and a confidence that shines. What it takes to pass NLCS at 4+
/I’ve written several very informative blogs about NLCS at 4+ so I won’t be repeating myself. To read these, simply search for NLCS in my Blogs!
I speak to many parents who are often surprised that their daughter did not pass her 4+ Assessment at NLCS.
If NLCS is the school of your dreams for your daughter, then you really need to go all in when preparing her for her 4+ Assessment at this school. After all, with only 8-10 places available at 7+, your next chance will be at 11+!
This is why I struggle to understand parents who come to me with less than 3-4 months left to prepare their daughter, have done hardly any prep and then tell me that they are surprised when their daughter doesn’t get a place.
If I had a daughter and I wanted her to go to NLCS, I would have started preparing her from 1 year of age!
This is school is so overly subscribed at 4+. With numbers in the very high hundreds (perhaps even over 1000) and with only 40 places available, you can see why it is so challenging to be offered a place at 4+.
After 15 years preparing my girls for this school, this is what I’ve learnt.
My girls who are successful are my girls who have a curiosity for learning and a confidence that shines. They are curious about everything, They want to know more about everything, They ask questions about everything. They want to answer my questions. They want more, more more! They have a confidence that shines. They can be timid but they exude confidence. They know what they want and they know they will get it!
This is the type of girl NLCS is looking for.
And you can prepare for this! 100% you can.
You have a very rare opportunity to work with me at this point. I have 2 new spaces that have just opened up!
