Trevor Roberts prep assessment

[blondie43]

Hi,
Has anyone been through the Trevor Roberts in NW3 4+ assessment? My DS is doing it soon and I haven't a clue how to help him!
Any hint/tips most welcome...thanks!!

We were shown around the school grounds ( playground, chicken coop, music room,etc), as a family although DH and I tried to stand back a bit and let DS alone with Amanda T-R. Then we were taken to a room where a teacher had books, paper , pencils, and other materials on a table. DS was expected to stay alone there with the teacher for the assessment. We joined Amanda in her office while waiting for him to be finished. This was a 2 years ago.

Thanks for your response, can I ask if your DS got in and if so is he happy?
Do you have any idea what he was asked to do on the paper?
My DS is learning to read and write but TR told me they weren't really interested in his school skills...or even if he had attended preschool!

From everything I have heard from friends with DC's at TR, being prepped would be a disadvantage, they are more interested in dc's personality and social interaction, interest in life in general - eg chatting confidently and enthusiastically with a teacher about their favourite interest/hobby - they won't be looking for early academic achievements. They pride themselves on not being like most other private preps in that regard, so I would try and relax, don't try and coach DS.

ThAnks for that, I suspected so! It's why I want him to go because it is so different from the others! I appreciate the feedback.

Blondie, I second what what Sleepwhenidie wrote but I will pm with more info.

I will just chill now and rest is in the hands of fate!

did you end up going to trevor roberts?, i would love to hear from you if you did. Or anyone who knows it, as not sure whether to give up current job and try and relocate to live closer to it - have 16months before assessment of my little boy

thanks in anticipation
