Habs' Boys' Round 2 - Expectations.
/Your son has passed the first round at Habs’ Boys’ for the 4+ Assessment.
Congratulations!
A very hard assessment to pass and many parents are not in the same position that you are in right now. You have clearly prepared your son very well to make it this far.
Round 2 is yet to come.
Perhaps you are feeling a mixture of emotions. Excitement, fear, nervousness and perhaps a little unsure.
Not to worry.
I’ve been preparing students for Haberdashers’ Boys’ and Girls’ for over 15 years.
A key difference between the first round and the second round is that in the second round your son will be seen on a one-to-one basis. The first round, your son will have mainly been assessed as part of the group that he was in. Another difference is that the Assessment is shorter - 60 minutes compared to 90 minutes in the first round.
You will also have your parent interviews. If you would like to discuss these further with me, book your Additional Consultation here.
What you want to focus on is the following:
Questioning - Your son will need to answer questions to a very high standard and quality.
Ability to solve problems - Problem solving has come up a lot historically in the second round of the Assessment at Habs’ Boys’.
Academic Capability - Your son will need to demonstrate excellent academic capability in all of the areas of the EYFS that they will be assessed on:
communication and language.
personal, social and emotional development.
physical development.
literacy.
mathematics.
understanding the world.
expressive arts and design.
I have three spaces available for my exceptional Intensive Course.
