The two main reasons your child was unsuccessful in their 4+ Assessment

I speak to a lot of parents who often tell me that they really do not understand why their child was unsuccessful in their 4+ Assessment. After hearing a few facts from them and a small amount of information, I am able to reveal to them the reason/s why.

There are so many reasons why your child might have been unsuccessful in their 4+ Assessments but here are the two main reasons.

Avoid these in order to have the highest chances for success in your child’s 4+ Assessment/s.

Here are the two main reasons in no particular order.

  1. They did not meet the behavioural expectations of the school.

Each school will have their own set of criteria that the children must meet in order to pass the Assessment. These range from - being polite, showing kindness, being able to share, listening well to others etc. If your child doesn’t meet these expectations or shows something that goes against these expectations, they will not be successful.

2. They did not meet the academic expectations of the school.

Each school will have their own set of academic criteria that the children must meet in order to pass the Assessment. This is self explanatory. If your child cannot do several academic things that are on the list, they will not be successful.

You need to be very aware about what the academic and behavioural expectations are at each school that you are applying to.

Know those two things and you are golden! Your child will have a far higher chance for success in their 4+ Assessments.
