This typically includes academic records, school reports, and other supporting materials relevant to the student’s grade level. An application and testing fee is required at this stage and is non-refundable.

After submission, applications are reviewed by the admissions team. Students may be required to complete grade-appropriate assessments and, where relevant, interviews. English language ability and academic readiness are considered as part of this review.

Following assessment, families are informed of the admissions decision. An offer may be made subject to space availability and the school’s ability to meet the student’s learning needs. Some offers may be conditional.

To secure a place, families must accept the offer and complete enrolment requirements, including payment of required registration and entrance fees. Enrolment is finalized once all documentation and payments are received.
