Everything you need to know about the Kings College Junior School 7+ Assessment
/Each year we prepare a number of boys for their KCJS 7+ Assessment.
The KCS Open Day will take place on Friday 13th June. You can click here to secure your spot.
There are approx. 54 places available for entry into Year 3 at KCJS. If you would love for your son to go to this school, you will want to prepare thoroughly for it and to the highest of standards.
The KCJS 7+ assessments consist of:
Round 1
English- A 45 minute long test which is divided into 2 sections – Comprehension and Writing (creative writing).
Maths – A 45 minute test based on the Year 2 National Curriculum and extension questions will be provided. Year 2 National Curriculum means the full Year 2 National Curriculum and not just the Autumn term.
Reasoning – This will be a selection of Verbal and Non Verbal Reasoning questions.
Listening test – A 25minute long test played via speakers. There will be a listening exercise followed by following the instructions given in the recording.
Round 2
If your child shows exceptional academic ability in the first round, they will be invited to the second round. These will be the activity sessions and interviews. Here your son’s personality will also be assessed. KCJS say that you can’t prepare for the activity session but we know exactly how to prepare for the activity sessions. We’ve been preparing boys for their KCJS Round 2 Assessments for over 16 years! Your son will then take part in a 20 minute interview with a senior member of staff. You definitely must prepare your son for this interview. Not to memorise (don’t do that!) but to be prepared to answer all of the questions asked of them.
