Use one prompt as a short conversation
Play the teacher audio once, allow thinking time, then invite a short natural answer. Repeat only when the child did not hear the prompt; do not train a memorised script.
- Listen to the whole prompt before answering.
- Start with one complete sentence.
- Add a reason, example or feeling only when it is natural.
Ten categories with a clear purpose
The 1,000 unique prompts are evenly divided across self-introduction, family, routines, general knowledge, situations, picture talk, maths, English, listening and group play.
- Use category filters to choose one skill, not to finish the bank.
- Mix easy and unfamiliar prompts after the child becomes comfortable.
- Stop after five to ten prompts or about ten minutes.
Give feedback a child can use
After a response, name one observable strength and one small next step. “I heard your reason clearly” is more useful than a score; “next time, tell me where it happened” is more useful than supplying a model answer.
- Do not compare siblings or other children.
- Do not correct every grammar point while the child is speaking.
- Let the child say politely that a question was not understood.
What this question bank is—and is not
Every prompt is original practice content written for common early-childhood skills. The bank is not an archive of school papers, a claim about a particular school's next interview, or a professional assessment.
- There is no pass mark or admission prediction.
- School-specific arrangements must be checked with the school.
- Progress records are family practice notes, not official results.
