London Parents Forum by Bonas MacFarlane – Starting Out: 4+ and Pre-Prep Q&A

Starting Out: 4+ and Pre-Prep
FRIDAY 20th APRIL 2018, 9-11am
St. Columba’s Church, Pont Street

The school system can be complex; what is the difference between pre-prep and prep? When do children need to be registered to secure a 4+ place?

For the second London Parents Forum of 2018, we will be welcoming a panel of speakers to decipher the 4+ entry point and the impact this can have on subsequent entry points, such as the 7/8+ or 11/13+.

We will be joined by Miss Adlard, Head of Early Years at Garden House School, and Mr Sebastian Hepher, Headmaster of Eaton Square School. They will be sharing their personal experiences and offering further insight into the school options available. The seminar will also focus on the 4+ assessment, how parents can correctly identify the right pre-prep for their child, and how to tackle the registration process.

The talk will be followed by a Q&A with the speakers, offering you the chance to get your specific questions answered.
