This episode is all about school interviews. Here in Hong Kong, school interviews are very common, in fact, as you’ll hear from our expert, some schools are interviewing one year olds! It may sound odd, but it’s happening.
Ruth Benny is the founder of Top Schools. She is a famous school consultant in Asia and the go-to expert for expats looking to secure a school place. Ruth shares insight into:
Preschool interviews – what to expect, the format of interviews and what preschools are looking for in students
Primary school entry interviews – group interviews, whether the ability to read and write is essential, and the most appealing traits for Year 1 kids
Late primary entry - what age written testing is introduced and how interviews evolve for older primary students
High school interviews – standardised testing for teens, relevant school reports, confidential reporting from previous schools and taster days
