What the Entrance Assessment Is — and What It Is Not
Our entrance assessment is not designed to find reasons to turn children away. It is designed to help us understand exactly where each child is — academically and in terms of learning style — so that from their very first day at Hopeday, their teacher knows how to meet them.
We assess to serve, not to sort.
| Level | Areas Assessed | Format | Duration |

| Primary 4–6 | English, Mathematics, Basic Science | Written | 60 mins |

| SSS 1–3 | English, Maths + 2 track subjects | Written + brief interview | 2 hrs |
After the Assessment
Results are communicated within 5 working days. We provide parents with a brief written feedback note — not just "pass or fail", but a genuine picture of their child's current strengths and areas for development. We believe every family deserves that honesty.
