Creative Ideas to Keep Children Engaged Over the HolidaysSummer holidays are a wonderful opportunity for parents to explore enriching, creative learning opportunities with their children without the usual term-time rush. At Keystone, we believe the best summer learning happens when it aligns with your child’s own interests, whether it’s a favourite artist, animal, historical period, or a country they are curious about.

7 Plus or 8 Plus Exam?

15 November, 2023

Historically boys would sit for the 8+ and girls for the 7+. This was based around the fact that it was traditionally accepted that boys mature a little later than girls at this age. Assessing them later meant that they had more time to develop and show their true potential. However, nowadays many schools offer both 7+ and 8+ entry and as such parents have the option to consider which might be most suitable.
