4+ Workshops April 2026
It is a fact that when children feel secure and capable, they are more likely to show their true potential during assessments. This not only reduces anxiety but also nurtures resilience and confidence — an important foundation for their ongoing educational journey. Our preparation workshops are all play-based and gently introduce and help consolidate children’s knowledge of the different components that will be tested across all schools so that no matter what comes up, your children will be very well prepared. Our success rates since we started preparation 10 years ago have consistently been over 90% into first choice schools no matter where in London or its surrounds the schools are.
After how popular our workshops were last year and how successful we were in helping and supporting parents and children, we have, in response to parent requests, decided to run our first 4+ Preparation Workshop Week for 2026 from the 07th to the 10th of April 2026. This can be booked as a full workshop for all 4 days or on individual days as preferred. However we would recommend that parents book all days to get the most benefit.
The time table is below.
Tuesday 07th April 2026 – 10.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m. – Phonics
Wednesday 08th April 2026 10.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m. – Numeracy
Thursday 09th April 10.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m. -Confidence Workshop
Friday 10th April 10.30 a.m. – 12.30 p.m. – Fine Motor Skills
Gentle preparation gives children the chance to practise listening, following instructions, sharing, and problem-solving in ways that feel natural and enjoyable.
