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.
Application process comprises four steps: Inquiry; Submission of documents; Interview; and Assessment of the application. Inquiry: Families may arrange an initial inquiry by contacting the main office by email or phone to meet the Head of School and learn about the curriculum and expectations for studying in an international school. After deciding ISLP is the school of choice, contact the school again to set up an Interview Day. Submission of documents: After the initial interview, the list of required registration documents is provided and all documents must be submitted before registration can be completed. Interview: On the interview day, parents and the applicant are interviewed by the Head of School, and the applicant sits admissions tests to assess readiness for the ISLP curriculum; for Early Years and lower primary applications, a class visit replaces tests. Assessment of application: No decision on entry is made until the Application Process is completed and the Admissions Committee has met to discuss the results, usually within 24 hours of the interview day. The school aims to admit all students who can benefit from the education offered; a child with special educational and social needs will be admitted only if the school can meet their needs, which will be discussed at the initial stages of the application. Pre-enrollment form: Submit a separate pre-enrollment form for each child to apply for admission.
