My son has had his assessment at DPL for entry to nursery this September. We love the feel of the school but would be grateful for opinions from those with experience of the school, particularly in the pre prep and prep.
Thanks

As with most assessments at that age, no parent ever really knows.
My son played with dinosaurs is about as much as I can say, I'm afraid.
I would expect much of the assessment to involve discussion as the child plays e.g what colour are these dinosaurs, how many spikes does it have, can you find a matching one, what do you think would happen if...etc
I know kids that could barely hold a pencil get in.
They do have a strong sibling policy as well.

We didn't do any prep for the assessments but we do generally talk to our kids about anything and everything and also read together a lot.

Good luck!
