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. School Visit & Assessment
Parents book a visit for the child and themselves, where they meet the Academic Heads and the Student Care & Admissions team. During this first visit, the child may undergo assessments: for Primary, this focuses on phonics (English), numeracy, and readiness to learn. The school may request documents from previous schooling.
2. Age Group & Class Placement
Placement is based primarily on the child’s age as of 31 August (for example, Year 1 children must have turned 5 by 31 August). The school also considers academic level, English proficiency, social/emotional development, and whether the school can meet the child’s educational needs.
3. Class Availability Check
After assessment and placement, the Admissions team checks whether there is a spot in the desired class/grade. If the class is full, the child may be placed on the waiting list.
4. Student Registration
Parents receive a link (via the STAR Portal) to upload required documents: child’s passport, immunisation records, prior school reports, parents’ ID/passport, optional bus/CCA registration, and medical/learning support if applicable. They also sign policies (e.g., consent, OTC medicines, photo consent, transport).
5. Enrolment Offer & Fee Payment
The school sends a letter of offer; parents must confirm they wish to accept, then pay the registration fee and tuition fee (or first instalment) by the due date to secure the place. Only after payment is enrolment confirmed.
6. Preparation & Start Date
After confirmation, parents and student prepare: uniform collection, set up parent-student portal (Seesaw), connect with class teacher/representative, review the Parent-Student Handbook. The student begins on the date stated in the offer letter.
The school operates a waiting list when a grade is full. If the desired class/grade is marked Waiting List, the Admissions & Student Care team will contact parents as soon as a spot opens up. The waiting time depends on the number of applicants already in the queue.
The school website does not publicly disclose any information about scholarships.
