OpenApply is used to manage the admissions journey. The process begins with submitting an enquiry to gain access to your OpenApply account, which serves as the central hub throughout the journey. A personalised school tour is recommended after creating the account, though a visit is not mandatory for submitting an application. Parents provide copies of the two most recent school reports to help tailor support, though this is not required for the youngest entrants. A trial day is offered to children of all ages to experience a typical school day and participate in some assessed work, and placement testing may follow for secondary applicants to evaluate readiness for IGCSE/IB programmes. When the academic requirements are met and the documentation is complete, a place offer is made and a place is confirmed only after three steps: the full application with documentation is submitted, the €750 application fee is received, and the Head of Admissions issues a place confirmation letter. If a year group is full, a place is offered on a waiting list. Admissions operate year‑round with no fixed deadlines, and there is a strict limit of no more than 20 children per class. Year‑round enrolment is possible, with some exceptions for Upper Secondary and Sixth Form; trial days and placement testing can be arranged throughout the year.

The school provides limited financial assistance for families facing challenges; information is available from the Admissions team regarding tuition fees and any available financial support for exceptional students.
St. George's School Düsseldorf Rhein-Ruhr provides an educational pathway starting with the Early Years Foundation Stage, transitioning into the British curriculum, and culminating with the Cambridge IGCSE and IB Diploma Programme. Located in Duisburg with ample green outdoor areas, the campus incorporates traditional classrooms alongside flexible makerspaces, modern science laboratories, and a dedicated performing arts theatre. Pupils benefit from specific instructional methods, including a flipped classroom model that moves lecture material online to prioritize interactive problem-solving during class hours. A distinctive feature of the school community is the St. George's Dragons, the official sports club, which unites pupils, families, and staff in competitive and recreational athletics, spanning local to international tournaments. The school also integrates the Duke of Edinburgh award and Model United Nations into its co-curricular offerings, encouraging active leadership and civic participation among the student body.
