Hello Hi there,

We hope you are all keeping well and now looking forward to the summer holidays and the Open Days just around the corner!

As many of you know, there have been some admissions test changes this week, which are vital to note.

Admissions Test Changes

- Registration for admissions tests opens 1st Sept, closes 30th Sept.
- BMAT, TMUA - sitting on the 18th October.
- BMAT will be pen and paper this year.
- ENGAA, NSAA - sitting on the 19th October.
- All other admissions tests- 2nd November.

What do the Admissions Test Changes mean for me?

For those impacted, it does mean that the summer preparation period is vital. However, remember that consistent practice and preparation is key- you should be committing to practicing practice questions, mock paper and past papers each month.

Parents' Afternoon

The next Parents' Afternoon will take place on Saturday 9th July at 15.00-16.00.
Please join us on the link here.

We will discuss the admissions test changes mentioned above with you.

Observations

Many students do not turn their cameras on during online seminars and are also utilising the chat function. We do request all cameras to be on through the duration of all attended courses and seminars. We politely request parents to reminder students of this. It's nice to see faces (but also, students would not walk into a classroom covering their face and Oxbridge interviews held online expect cameras on too, so it's good practice). In addition, it is vital that students are able to utilise the seminars to verbally communicate their ideas which helps develop their interview and critical thinking skills. Thank you for your help!
