KES interview

Post by Crazymum10 »

Has anyone been called for the KES boy’s school interview?
When do they start calling?
Do they usually phone?
How much notice do they give?

Could someone kind please tell me what these interviews are like?
What sort of things will they ask me, and how tough will it be for my son?

There are 2 types of interview. Borderline and scholarship. I have heard they sometimes show a photograph and ask the child to talk through the photo. For example, paddy fields. Whee is rice grown etc where might this photo have been taken. Borderline, they may ask a related question to an area the child did not do well in. It's About 10 mins I am told...I would guess hard to prepare for deliberately so.

Are the KES results out? Someone said on another chat they received on Thursday.
A friend is waiting and her son had an AP interview and not received anything yet.
