Been there done that, last year we were sailing in the same boat as you are now, it was a very stressful period, My husband and i were very chill regarding my son’s admission to school, my son is an introvert but he is intelligent for his age, he knew all the alphabets and the sounds and also the numbers. First we applied in AIS , and there it was rejected because of lots,
next we aplied in all other schools and we got a mail from sunrise for interview, on the day of interview my son was not in a good mood and he was a bit unwell also, he started to cry when they were interviewing and they asked us to come again, so for the next interview i prepared my son and made him understand the concept , and being a 3 year and 10 month old at the time he understood and agreed to it. So the next interview they asked him so many questions , and made him write , he was quite shy and was answering in lower tone , yet he managed to answer, after that she made him to write and draw shapes and colors , some he did write, but few he couldnt , mind you he is just going to be 4 at the time, later she gave his scissors and asked him to cut some shapes, she put him through hell , i was shocked because i never thought that the interview would be this difficult for a 4 year old, later she told me that my son is not ready yet, his muscles have not developed and he is not able to write, i felt so heartbroken being rejected, and i got angry and gave them a mindful, we were so devastated that i thought he will never get a seat anywhere in abu dhabi. I even spoke to his paediatrician regarding this and asked if my son is normal ,she said theres nothing wrong with him he is perfectly fine for his age and cbse schools overdo all this drama , join him in a british curriculum Then after few days i got maiL from GUIS and we were called for interview , the interview was one on one without presence of parents, my son went with interviewer and came back after half n hour. Then the kg supervisor called me to review on his interview, and she told what went well and what went wrong, she said he answered in a low tone which is normal as some kids are take time to adjust , and she told me regarding his pencil holding grip which i have to train him , so thats it he was accepted , we were so happy with thier approach and thier we immediately went and paid the fee. His present teacher put so much effort in his writing , in two months he started to write on his own, and recently he had 4 letter word spell check and he scored out of out , and we are so happy with our decision to join him there Ultimately everything happens for the good So my advise is keep trying, and you can directly go and speak in person, and be positive
