3. After receiving the admission request, we will arrange different level tests according to the educational stage you're applying to (Primary and Secondary). For Secondary entries, all prospective pupils undertake a personal interview and English level assessment with the Secondary Head Teacher to ensure they can access the curriculum; for other stages, tests assess literacy and numeracy appropriate to the level. A copy of the pupil's most recent school report is requested during the process. The results of the assessment, the interview and the reports help determine eligibility.
4. Once the tests have been passed and the required documentation has been received, enrolment will take place. If there is no space available in the child's class, the pupil will be placed on a waiting list and parents will be contacted when a place becomes available. Enrolment requires payment of the Enrolment Fee of 925€, which is non-refundable. Start dates are the first day of term or at any stage during the academic year, subject to availability.
