How to prepare for the Chigwell 4+ Assessments with only 3-6 weeks left!
/This year, I am personally preparing 5 children for the Chigwell 4+ Assessment. They have all been with me for at least 8 months. My recommendation for preparation at this schools is 8-12 months. This is because I have seen the most success with this time duration.
I am so excited for my students who will be going to their assessments at the end of September. I know that they have been prepared to the highest standard and I know that they will go in and shine. I know that they are equipped with the skills to be able to answer any question that they are asked, to be able to complete any activity and to be able to go in and truly thrive.
If your child is sitting the Chigwell 4+ Assessment in the next 3-6 weeks, here are my recommendations for how to prepare.
Lots and lots of questioning - your child will need to communicate exceptionally well to be offered a place at Chigwell. I wouldn’t recommend sending your child in to this assessment, if they are unable to do this.
Focus on listening skills - your child will need to listen and engage with a story and demonstrate high levels of listening skills. Listening also includes how your child responds to what they have heard.
Cover all of the curriculum to a very high standard.
If you don’t know the curriculum and you need further support, I would suggest you book the Gold Package with one of our Senior teachers so take your child’s learning and understanding to the level it needs to be in order to pass this assessment.
The Chigwell 4+ Assessment is not easy.
Chigwell at 4+ is very over subscribed.
Chigwell will be looking for something specific in their students.
If you don’t know what they are looking for, work with someone who does.
We have supported children to be very successful at this school.
Here is a testimonial from one of my clients whose son has started at Chigwell this year…

I would highly recommend Maria!!! SHE IS SIMPLY THE BEST!
We knew we wanted to send our son to a school that required him to sit the 4+ assessments. I did not know what was needed to prep him. I searched online and came across creative mind tutors. After having read their blog posts on their website, i had a discovery call with Maria. During this call she listened to me and I instantly knew she would be right for us. Her knowledge of the curriculum is outstanding.
We started with her curriculum sprints and then embarked on weekly tutuion sessions online. Maria was kind, patient and structured. She knew exactly what needed to be done and was aware of the timeline we had.
Our son got offers from all the schools we applied to and I am so grateful to Maria for making the whole experience fun and enjoyable for little children.
Thank you so much Maria!
