Trinity School and Whitgift - Query?
Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2021 1:06 am
Hi,
We are preparing for the Sutton Grammars which would be our first preference. However, as we are local thought would also give Trinity/ Whitgift. Don't intend to sit any other private schools.
In the past Trinity/Whitgift used to test English , Maths and verbal reasoning only. However this year with ISEB, it appears that the children would have done non verbal reasoning too.
Query for me - is whether to start preparing for non verbal reasoning too.......Son attends a state school so it is not something he would be familiar with. Wondering if there is anyone else in a similar situation..... i.e. whether to prepare for non verbal reasoning....... I would have to work with him myself as he is not tutored.
Am not really sure also where to start with non verbal reasoning in terms of books etc. Any ideas or your thoughts on this also please?
Thanks.
