Assessments













 Assessment includes the following:

Assessment Books
  1. Reading Level
  2. Spelling Level
  3. Non-verbal Reasoning
  4. Addition and Subtraction
  5. Number Bonds
  6. Tables
  7. Verbal Reasoning
  8. Maths

An overall percentage score is calculated and children are graded between 1 and 10 (10 being the highest). Equivalent National Curriculum levels can be included. The assessment is specifically designed to predict a child's likelihood of success in the 11+ examinations.

Placement on courses is not dependent on assessment scores: the decision to commence tuition is entirely at the parents' discretion. No assessment is fool-proof. It cannot test determination, preparedness for hard work and latent potential that may be unlocked within an individual during the process of tuition. An initial assessment is a useful guideline for parents and teacher as a measure of the child's current performance and future potential.

NOTE: After the assessment there is no obligation to enrol on any course.
