We were asked varying questions depending on the school but here is a few that I wrote down, and most of them were similar or the same:

- Who is she/he now compared to a year ago?

- What kind of extracurricular activities do they do?

- What are your child's strengths?

- What are your child's challenges? How do you/ your child deal with those challenges?

- What does your child do at home when there is down time?

- What is your parental philosophy?

- How do you think your family connects with _______ (fill in blank with school) mission statement? What parts do you connect to the most?

- What are your child's strengths and what do you expect from ________ (fill in blank with school) environment to support them?

- What would be a perfect family day for you if you had no other commitments?

- What would you want to do if you didn't have to worry about work or school, and had no other commitments?


I would say make sure you review your parent statement before the interview because most admissions people will reference it during your in person interview. So make sure what you are saying matches up with the questions they ask. Also make sure you know the main and most important points of the school's mission statment, and even some parts from your tour. They may ask "what was your favorite part of the tour?" This can be easy to answer if your interview is right after the tour but sometimes it isn't. So just take note.

Wow, where do I send your flowers? thank you

No problem! I'll post my address here......

I wrote down a lot of the questions we were asked and some of the things that I could get out of my daughter after her play groups haha
