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.
The school has an official school uniform. Uniforms must be purchased from Trutex, the official uniform supplier. Online ordering is available, with deliveries to home within 3-5 working days or to the school, and non-compliance can result in a student being asked to change.
Fresh meals are cooked on site daily. A vegetarian option is available at every lunch, and meals include a salad bar and fresh fruit; ingredients are sourced locally where possible.
The school uses a four-house system: Montreux (Red), Rhône (Blue), Simplon (Green), and Savoie (Yellow). Students are allocated to a House on joining, siblings are placed in the same House, and House points are awarded via Class Dojo to encourage achievement, community, and leadership.
The school is part of Nord Anglia Education.
