The highly competitive Manor Lodge 4+ assessment and the BS comments you will read online.

Just some stupid, nonsensical and BS comments that you will read online…

Up to you if you believe these comments and up to you if you prep your child or not. We are here to support parents who will take this 4+ process seriously. If you won’t, then we are not the teachers for you anyway!

‘For assessments, they don’t like if a child has been prepped or tutored.’

What a ridiculous, ignorant thing to say. That is all.

‘It is clear to them which kids are tutored and which are not.’

Yeh! And the tutored ones will be the ones who will pass. I’m not speculating here. I know this as a FACT having prepared boys and girls for Manor Lodge for 2 decades.

‘What will be, will be’

This is not the Que Sera, Sera song! With that kind of attitude, don’t even bother.

Do what you please but please do not send a 3 year old unprepared to this assessment. Its just not the right thing to do.

‘What they expect from an autumn born child is different to what they expect from a summer born child!’

Oh really? Oh please. Never in my 2 decades of doing this have I ever heard that my summer born students have been assessed any differently to my autumn born students. My son is a July baby. He is miles ahead of most autumn born children in his cohort (in all areas of learning). The month you’re born in should not determine your academic capacity. But how you are taught and prepared will.

‘All I did was tell her it would be a playdate and to go in and be herself.’

I imagine this parent typing this and doing an evil laugh.

Why on earth would you send your child into any assessment without thoroughly preparing them?

I will never, ever understand this.

And nope, sending them to nursery/pre-school every day is not 4+ assessment preparation.
