'I'll wait until my child is 3!' is not a strategy for 4+ Assessment preparation.

‘I’m really against tuition!’

‘I just don’t agree with tuition!’

‘Oh, it just doesn’t sit right with me!’

‘I just don’t want my child to do tuition at such a young age!’

I don’t know why there’s so much trauma around the word ‘tuition’. It must be some deep childhood trauma, I’m not quite sure what it is. But I hear parents saying these things to me every single day.

And then comes the total and utter confusion.

These parents want their children to be offered a place at coveted schools like Westminster, Haberdashers and Highgate?

Oh the contradiction. Oh the total and utter confusion.

Wake up everyone!

It is nearly April!

Most of my clients have been preparing for the 4+ with myself and my team since September -December of last year.

If you keep waiting, how is that going to be helpful to any one?

You have a vast curriculum to cover to prepare your child for these prestigious schools.

Then comes the … ‘Well I’m not worried, she goes to a top Nursery/Pre- prep and x children got into x schools.’

Listen up, out of those x children, how many of them were in fact tutored - I promise you ALL OF THEM.

So please don’t wait. The time to start was 3 months ago! But if you’re just getting started now, just start.
