Your child being 'grouped by age' doesn’t mean what you might think it means.

Careful what you make this mean.

So you’ve applied to your dream schools and you read that your child will be grouped with peers of their same age.

Perhaps you make this mean that your child will be assessed differently because of their age.

This is simply not the case.

Do you really think these top schools have the time to differentiate their 4+ Assessments?

They do not. And why should they?

Your child WILL be assessed in the exact same way regardless of their age.

Read that again.

So please don’t waste a precious moment thinking that because your child is summer born that they will somehow have an ‘easier’ assessment than their autumn/winter born peers.

It is simply not the case.

Read carefully what these schools write.

They write things like - ‘All children who have applied will be invited in small groups of a similar birth month…’

No where in the phrase above does it say that ‘… children will be assessed differently because of their birth month.’

Prepare your child thoroughly regardless of their date of birth.

Prepare your child to go in and pass any 4+ Assessment. Our CMT Curriculum programmes have supported thousands of children to pass their 4+ Assessments at the best inner and outer London schools.
