2 things you should NEVER do if you are preparing your child for City Junior School at 7+
/We have been preparing children for the City Junior School 7+ Assessment for over 14 years!
We have had tremendous success.
We know exactly what this school is looking for and we know exactly how to prepare our students to go into their Assessments at City and pass both rounds with ease, calm and confidence!
So if your child is preparing for City, you will definitely want to read on!
The first stage of assessments will be held on Friday 29 November 2024. Children will sit papers in mathematics, reading comprehension and creative writing.
The first stage is very challenging to pass and your child needs to be at a very high level and scoring between 85% and 90% across the board in maths, comprehension and writing.
If your child passes the first round, they are invited to the second round which will be between Thursday 9 to Thursday 16 January 2025. This will be a group task and a 1:1 interview.
Passing round two is even harder than round 1.
If you are preparing for City (boys or girls), here are two things you should NEVER do.
1. Do not send your child to Round 1 if your child has not written at least 10 stories that have been edited at least once or twice. Don’t expect your child to pass the Creative Writing component of the 7+ Assessment (Round 1) if they’ve not at least done this as a bare minimum.
2. Work with a teacher just because they specialise in 7+ Assessment preparation. The teacher your work with must have had success at City. This is imperative because the teacher you work with needs to know what is expected at City.
