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. Submit an admission application in the correct school format and provide the required documentation. Families complete a language survey for the applicant and supply transcripts, report cards, or other academic records as available. The Admissions Officer will request any additional documents as needed. An application fee is payable at submission and is non-refundable.
2. Admissions testing and interviews: All applicants undergo admissions testing. The Admissions Officer communicates the required test(s) to families. Interviews may be conducted by the Admissions Officer, the School Director, the Head of SEND and Inclusion, and senior or middle leaders. The testing and interviews assess readiness, suitability for the program, and alignment with London Academy's values.
3. Year group placement: London Academy follows UK age groupings for EYFS and Primary; year-group placement is determined by age and readiness, with adjustments where necessary to serve the child's best interests. Decisions consider academic capacity, required support, social-emotional well-being, and future academic goals. In some cases, the Leadership Team may exercise discretion to place a child in a different year group. The school plans the progression from Primary to Secondary with consideration of the child's needs and pathways.
4. Admissions criteria: The selection takes into account multiple factors, including family commitment to London Academy's vision, mission, and core values; the applicant's behavioural history, effort and attendance; whether siblings are already enrolled at a sister campus; children of London Academy staff; and students transferring from other international or local schools; and students transferring from a French-medium or Moroccan-medium school. The list is not exhaustive and the criteria are not ranked.
5. Admissions requirements and documentation: Submission of the application in the correct format is mandatory. Families complete a language background survey and provide transcripts, reports, and other requested documents. The school may request additional information to support SEND considerations. Where SEND is involved, a comprehensive review applies.
6. Associated fees and funding: A non-refundable application fee applies at submission; acceptance of an admission offer requires payment of a non-refundable registration fee. Families with students requiring additional support may be asked to cover the full cost of a shadow teacher where applicable.
7. Special Education Needs Admissions: Applicants with SEND are evaluated through a comprehensive process; extended admissions routes and/or additional external testing may be used if concerns arise during assessment. Full needs evaluation may be conducted and, if the school cannot meet the needs, transfer or alternative provision may be recommended. Ongoing evaluation includes IEP development and review as needed.
8. Final decisions and inquiries: All admissions decisions are made by the Managing Director/School Director and are final. Inquiries about final decisions may be directed to the Admissions Officer, though limited information about the criteria used is provided.
9. Timeline and transition: Year group placement aligns with UK age groupings and the British school year calendar; where necessary, transition decisions between Primary and Secondary are made in collaboration with families to support continuation of education and personal development.
