It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Applications are submitted online via the admissions pages. Mid-year starts are welcome and accepted at any time, but spaces are limited. After the application is received, families are invited to an interview with the Principal to discuss needs and fit. An Offer Letter is issued after assessing the application; a level of English fluency is required to understand classroom instruction, with ESOL support available for students whose first language is not English. The result of the application is notified within seven days of the interview. If a place is offered, acceptance must be confirmed in writing and the acceptance fee paid.
