Radnor House Sevenoaks 11+ Exam Styles
- The admission process involves a blend of academic evaluation, including the CAT 4 cognitive ability test and a 30-minute written English paper, an interview with a Senior Leadership team member, and a reference from your child's current school.
- The CAT 4 cognitive ability test is computer-based and assesses vocabulary, mathematics, perceptual speed and accuracy, as well as non-verbal reasoning. No practice papers are available for these tests. To prepare, children should work on independent problem-solving skills, expand their vocabulary through reading, and indicate if they require extra time for the exams.
- The English writing test assesses a child's ability to write coherently and fluently in prose. Candidates can enhance their readiness by honing problem-solving skills and enriching their vocabulary and comprehension through reading.
- The interview, lasting around 10 minutes, provides an opportunity to learn about your child's interests both in and outside of school. It includes a brief reading passage and allows the child to reflect on their alignment with the school's values of excellence, respect, courage, and perseverance.
- In terms of the admission decision, the academic component accounts for 50% of the final evaluation, while the qualitative aspects of the interview and reference together contribute the remaining 50%.
