The main PROBLEM with preparing for the 4+ Assessment at NLCS.
/Last year, we prepared a record number of girls for their 4+ assessment at NLCS.
8 to be precise.
6 were offered a place.
Most of these girls will be going to NLCS this year.
We are so proud of all our girls. They all worked so incredibly hard.
Being offered a place at NLCS is definitely not easy. Far from it. With at least 500 applicants and only 40 places on offer, your daughter must be prepared to the highest of standards to truly go in and shine.
If you want to know the main PROBLEM with preparing for the NLCS 4+ assessment this year, read on!
There are many problems with preparing for the 4+ at NLCS but here is the main one.
Parents not truly understanding that this is a competition.
When you don’t understand that this is a competition, you will not go into the process with the drive and ambition that my clients have. Keep in mind that each year, CMT prepares 5-10 girls for the NLCS 4+ Assessment and each year, we have amazing results.
If you don’t have a benchmark for comparison how will you even know that you are preparing your daughter to the correct level academically? How do you know that you are preparing her to the correct level behaviourally? How do you know?
Well, you wouldn’t.
This is a competition. 500 applicants. 40 places. Perhaps 20 girls will be waitlisted each year. Perhaps more, perhaps less.
If you don’t have the passion, the drive and the motivation to prepare your daughter to go in and truly shine in this 4+ assessment, forget about her passing. These are my thoughts and my opinion backed by data over the last 20 years.
If you are preparing for NLCS for 2027 entry, you have exactly 8 months remaining to prepare your daughters. Included in those 10 months will be holidays and sickness so 8 months turn into 5 or 6 months most likely. I don’t think 5 or 6 months is enough time to prepare for the 4+ at NLCS but it’s better your start now then keep putting it off.
I have just opened up 5 precious places to join my NLCS Success Programme and I am currently looking for 5 parents who want to commit at least 1 month to go all in to support their daughters to be wildly successful in this incredibly tough 4+ assessment. Join today before we are completely at capacity.
