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.
Step 1: Parents/guardians register their child's name in the admissions log at the School's reception. The registration triggers the Admissions Office to begin the admissions process. The office invites the family to an orientation that presents the academic program and includes a school tour. Step 2: The Admissions Office contacts the family to schedule the orientation. The orientation includes a session by the Principal on the academic program. A school tour is provided during the orientation. Step 3: Parents/Guardians collect the application package from the Admissions Office. The application form is available at the Office. Two forms exist: one for Grade One to Ten and one for Senior High School and IBDP. The package includes all documents required. Step 4: Parents/Guardians fill out and submit the application form to the Admissions Office. The Admissions Office will set a date and time for placement assessment and an interview. For Grade I, the assessment is a placement test with a parent interview; for IBDP and Grade XI there is a written mathematics and English test followed by a short student interview. Step 5: Parents/Guardians and students will be notified by telephone or email if accepted. The notification confirms whether a place is offered. Families receive guidance on next enrollment steps. Step 6: Upon admission, an acceptance letter and a deposit voucher are issued. The deposit confirms admission and covers liable fees. If the deposit is not paid by the given date, the seat is forfeited and a seat from the waiting list may be offered. Step 7: Parents/guardians attend an Open House. They receive a handbook, curriculum and other necessary documents. Open House provides essential information before the term begins.
Waitlist Form allows interested candidates to submit their details to be placed on the waitlist. We will prioritize waitlisted applications if seats become available in the new academic session.
