Norwich School 6th form - Entrance exam

Hi everyone,
We went to the Norwich School sixth-form open evening recently and absolutely loved it! My daughter has registered for entry into Year 12, and her main assessment day is on 21 November.
She is really interested in the school but is understandably quite nervous about the assessment day, as we don’t really know what to expect.
Are there any parents with children currently at Norwich School, particularly in the sixth form, whose children went through the admissions process recently?
I’d love to know what the day actually involves, particularly the written task, group activities, lesson experience and teacher conversation. What sort of things are they looking for, and is there anything sensible she can do to prepare without overthinking it?
I’m especially keen to hear from anyone whose child joined from a state secondary school.
She’s a bright, motivated girl who gets involved in lots of things outside the classroom, but she’s putting quite a bit of pressure on herself!
Any first-hand experiences or advice would be hugely appreciated. Thank you!
