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. Contact us. Reach out to schedule a visit to the school or arrange a virtual call, especially if you are currently abroad. This starts the admissions process. The admissions process follows a structured approach to ensure a smooth transition for your child.
2. School Tour/Virtual Call. A tour or virtual call gives us the chance to meet you and your child, understand their needs and interests, and discuss the curriculum. We show you the facilities to provide a glimpse into the learning environment. This step helps you get a clear sense of how the school operates.
3. Assessment/Taster Day. We may request your child's previous school report (if applicable) and organize placement tests if necessary. We may invite your child to a taster day to immerse them in the school community. These assessments help determine appropriate placement.
4. Acceptance. After completing the assessment, you will receive a written offer and a fixed period (five to ten days) to reserve a place while you complete registration. This period allows you to finalize enrolment arrangements. The next step follows once the place is reserved.
5. Enrolment. Your family becomes part of the School Community. Enrollment completes the admissions process.
