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. Enquiry / Contact the School
Prospective parents begin by contacting Little Woods Montessori via the school’s website or enrolment page, or through directories. The school offers both international and local admission options and is licensed by ECDA. Parents can request a personal tour or speak with the Principal to understand the programme, schedules, and options.
2. Submission of Application / Enrolment Form
After the initial inquiry, parents fill out an enrolment or application form. This form typically includes the child’s details (age, background), session preferences (morning, mid-morning, double, extended) and may inquire about languages or special needs.
3. Assessment / Compatibility / Confirmation
The school reviews applications to ensure suitability for the child (age group, readiness) and confirms space availability. Some programmes have limited places due to a small cohort size. After acceptance, parents receive information about fees, session schedule, and what to bring.
4. Orientation and Enrollment
Once acceptance is confirmed and fees are agreed upon, parents confirm enrollment and begin attending. The school may have orientation or parent briefings so families understand school routines, programme structure, and expectations.
The school does not publicly disclose whether it operates a waitlist or a pool system for admissions.
