What Does CAT4 Measure?
The test assesses four main areas of cognitive ability:
- Verbal Reasoning – Understanding and processing language-based information.
- Non-Verbal Reasoning – Recognising patterns and relationships in shapes and diagrams.
- Quantitative Reasoning – Working with numbers and problem-solving using numerical relationships.
- Spatial Reasoning – Visualising and manipulating shapes and space, important for STEM subjects.
We recognise that every student’s journey is unique. Some adapt instantly, while others require more time to adjust to new requirements. At The Island Private School, we provide the personalised guidance and close support necessary to ensure this transition is smooth, rewarding, and tailored to each child’s individual needs.
If there is an available place in a certain age group, we arrange a meeting with our learning support team. During this meeting, we discuss the specific needs of the child together with parents or guardians and determine if we have the resources and expertise to provide the necessary support in each individual case.
