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.
01 Initial enquiry: Reach out to the Admissions Team or complete the online enquiry form to indicate interest and ask initial questions. The Admissions Team responds promptly with next steps and any required information. They outline the documents needed to proceed with the application. 02 Schedule a school tour: Book a guided tour to explore our learning spaces, meet the admissions team, and experience the TAE learning environment in person. The tour provides an opportunity to see classrooms, facilities and discuss curriculum and student support. You can ask about timelines and next steps during the visit. 03 Comprehensive assessment: After submitting the required documents, applicants take age-appropriate assessments. Parents attend a family interview to share information about their child's interests, strengths and needs. The admissions team uses the assessments and interview to understand fit and determine next steps. 04 Results: The Admissions Committee reviews the application and communicates the decision to the family. If admitted, an enrolment letter outlines the next steps and timelines. This letter confirms acceptance and provides details about enrollment, fees and any further actions. 05 Welcome to Tome1s Alva Edison: After paying the enrolment fee, the child officially joins the TAE community. The school provides welcome information, onboarding details and contact points to begin the school year. The family can look forward to joining the school community.
