What is a school like Westminster looking for in the 4+ assessment?

500 applicants.

32 places.

100 shortlisted after round 1.

32/100 will be offered a place. Around 20-30 will be Waitlisted.

We prepared 4 children who were offered a place at Westminster last year (2026 entry).

We know exactly what they are looking for.

We know the children who passed.

We know the children who didn’t pass.

We know the attributes of the children who passed and we are able to share this expertise with our clients so that they fully understand the expectations at Westminster.

You see – we all think our children our amazing. All of us do!

You, however, (most likely) have no one to compare your child to.

I do.

I never compare children. But I can compare the children who passed and those who did not. And I can fully support my clients to understand the exact reasons why children were unsuccessful and support them to not make the same mistakes.

The children who we prepared last year who were offered a place to study at Westminster from September 2026 were able to go in and demonstrate the following (and these are just a few for you) …

The ability to communicate amazingly.

A broad and vast vocabulary.

They had a strong understanding of phonics.

They were able to write most letters of the alphabet.

They covered a broad and vast mathematical curriculum.

They were inquisitive.

They were very curious.

They had strong knowledge and understanding of the world around them.

They were artistic.

They had very strong fine motor skills.

They would have been able to follow instructions perfectly.

They would have been able to demonstrate resilience, perseverance and dedication.

They went in calmly.

We support all of our students to be able to go into any 4+ assessment and show exactly what the assessors are looking for. Far more importantly than this, we are able to provide our students with an exceptional curriculum and support them to achieve their fullest potentials.

That’s why we have the success that we have year after year after year. Each year, our results get better! Just you wait for our 2026/2027 results! I cannot wait to share them with you!
