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.
1. Step 1 – Application window and initial registration. Admissions open from June to August, unless the level is full. Because enrolment is in great demand, parents are strongly advised to register early. The application form can be obtained from the main office.
2. Step 2 – Submit the application with documents. The form is submitted to the Main Office together with a copy of the child's birth certificate, a copy of the child's IC (if applicable), and a copy of the child's most recent school results. The application form can be obtained from the main office. These documents are required to complete the application and move forward in the process.
3. Step 3 – Admission testing and interviews. The school administers tests in English, Bahasa Melayu, Science, and Mathematics to assess academic abilities. Results of these tests for successful applicants are usually communicated before the end of the year. In addition to the tests, parents and students are interviewed by the Heads of Sections/Heads of Departments.
4. Step 4 – Foreign student passes. The Ministry of Education requires all foreign students to have valid student passes before they are officially registered with the school. Parents should therefore obtain these passes from the Ministry of Education and Immigration Department.
5. Step 5 – New admission charges and fee structure. For new admissions, a deposit of B$250 is required, along with one month's advance fee and an admission fee of B$50 (non-refundable). An annual surcharge of B$10 applies before entering Year 1–11, and a miscellaneous fee of B$130 applies to kindergarten students. Fees are subject to revision.
6. Step 6 – Fees payment and year-end requirements. Parents should settle the school fees during the first five working days of each month. All school fees must be settled by the end of the school year. If any fees remain outstanding, the school is permitted to remove the student's name from the Register for the next year, and leaving certificates will not be issued until all outstanding fees are cleared.
There is no published waitlist or pool system described for St. Andrew's School Brunei.
St. Andrew's School Brunei does not publish any internal scholarships or school-run financial aid programs on its admissions pages.
St. Andrew's School is a historic co-educational institution located in the heart of Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei. Founded in 1957 by Rev. Canon Paul Chong En Siong, the school has grown from a small intake of 70 students to a vibrant community of over 1,600 pupils. It follows a curriculum that prepares students for the Cambridge GCE O Level examinations, integrating the Brunei National Curriculum requirements. The campus serves students from Kindergarten through Secondary levels (Year 11), emphasizing character development alongside academic studies. Notable facilities include dedicated spaces for sciences and computer studies, supporting a wide range of co-curricular activities. The school is particularly active in uniformed groups and competitive societies, such as the Police Cadets and various academic clubs like "Number Ninjas" and Robotics. St. Andrew's prides itself on its multicultural environment, with a diverse student body that fosters mutual respect and discipline.
There are several platforms that list schools. But only one has every school in Southeast Asia, fully impartial, and designed for parents: doris.
