Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Step 1. Confirm eligibility and seat availability. The Philippine School Bahrain uses a DepEd-based curriculum approved by the Ministry of Education and follows the Philippine K to 12 framework. New students from DepEd-curriculum schools can transfer at any time upon presentation of valid required documents and payment of the prescribed fees, provided seats are available. New students from non-DepEd curriculum schools can join only at the beginning of each school year and must pass the interview and written assessments to confirm their suitability and proper grade placement, in addition to fulfilling the regular admission requirements.
Step 2. Prepare and submit the required documents. For Kindergarten to Grade 1, the application requires a completed Registration/Enrollment Form, a Philippine passport (original and photocopy), birth certificate, CPR (for both student and parents), health/medical/vaccination record, two passport-style photos, and a satisfactorily passed assessment. For Grades 2 to 11, applicants from DepEd curriculum schools must provide the Registration/Enrollment Form, Original SF9 Report Card, Authenticated SF10 Transcript of Records, Philippine passport copies, birth certificate, CPR, health/medical records, Certificate of Good Moral Character, two photos, and a satisfactorily passed assessment. Applicants from NON-DepEd curriculum schools must provide the Registration/Enrollment Form, Complete Record of Scholastic Performance, Leaving Certificate, Philippine passport copies, birth certificate, CPR, health/medical records, Certificate of Good Behavior, two photos, and a satisfactorily passed assessment.
Step 3. Undergo interviews and assessments (non-DepEd) and confirm grade placement. Non-DepEd applicants are required to undergo an interview and written assessments to confirm suitability and proper grade placement, in addition to fulfilling the regular admission requirements. Across eligible tracks, applicants must pass the assessment to continue in the admissions process. The phrasing “Satisfactorily passed the assessment” appears in the admission requirements for the relevant categories.
Step 4. Complete registration and enrollment after meeting requirements. Kindergarten to Grade 1 requires a completed Registration/Enrollment Form along with the other listed documents; Grades 2 to 11 require a completed Registration/Enrollment Form plus the corresponding set of academic records and identifications. After verification of documents and assessment results, the school completes the enrollment process and moves toward fee settlement. Prescribed fees must be paid as part of the enrollment steps.
Step 5. Final admission decision and enrollment confirmation. Once all documents are verified, the assessment is passed, and the regular admission requirements are satisfied, the applicant proceeds with enrollment and receives confirmation of admission. The admission requirements explicitly call out that eligibility depends on seats being available, assessment outcomes, and the fulfillment of the standard documents and fees.
Philippine School Bahrain does not publish a waitlist or pool system on its admissions information.
