The Headmaster and the Headmistress of the Junior School meet with the parents and the child and show them around the school. The meeting provides an opportunity to discuss the school and its programs. Registrations can be initiated by expressing interest and arranging a visit through the Registrar.
2. Documentation required: Complete the Application Form and sign it by the parents. Provide the pupil's report from the previous school, translated into English if necessary. Submit a Medical Form fully filled and signed by the parents, along with Medical Certificates. The Registrar will outline all required documents during the visit and confirm when the files are complete.
3. Admission decision and timing: After the interview and submission of the required documents, the admission decision is given verbally or in writing to the parent.
