Admissions
|
Admissions 1. Step 1: Application. To begin enrolment, complete the ISPH online application at isph.openapply.com and upload the required supporting documentation. Read and sign off the terms and conditions governing enrollment and admissions, which are also available in Vietnamese. ISPH opens admissions throughout the year, and there is no specific fixed intake period, but some year groups may reach full capacity; contact the Admissions Team to check current availability. 2. Step 2: Admissions Assessment. The school will contact you to arrange the Admissions Assessment. During this session the Principal, Head of Primary or Head of Secondary will meet you and your child to discuss the application. Your child will then complete a series of assessment tasks to evaluate readiness and fit for ISPH. 3. Step 3: Offer of school place. After successful completion of steps 1 and 2, a school place can be offered subject to availability. Parents receive an Offer Letter, usually within two days; if an offer cannot be made, the school explains the reasons and next steps. 4. Step 4: Acceptance and Registration. To accept the offer and complete registration, sign and return the Offer Letter and make payment of the Registration Fee. Registration is then completed and the school place is reserved for your child. 5. Step 5: Payment of fees and deposit. Before the child commences at the school, parents pay all applicable fees, including the tuition fee, capital fee and security deposit. Admissions are considered complete once these payments are made and the student is enrolled. | Admissions 1. Parents begin by completing the online registration form on the TH School website, calling the admissions hotline, or visiting the campus in person to register their child. After the form is received, an Admissions Officer will contact the parents. 2. The school arranges an entrance assessment, which can be done either online or on campus. For Early Years, children join an age-appropriate play-based interview in English with the Kindergarten Principal. For primary, students take Maths and English tests and have an English interview, combined with a review of previous school records. For Lower and Upper Secondary, students complete a CAT4 cognitive test, an English writing task and an English interview, with results considered alongside prior academic performance. Before the assessment date, parents are to email required documents. 3. Within five working days of the assessment, if the school has received complete documentation, TH School informs parents of the results. If the student meets requirements and a place is available, the school issues an offer letter by email. In some cases, this may be a conditional offer with specific recommendations to support the student’s learning. Class placement is made according to year of birth, although a student may occasionally be placed in a lower grade where prior performance or English level suggests this is more appropriate. If classes are full, the student may be placed on a waiting list or invited to re-apply after 3–6 months if entry requirements are not yet met. 4. Parents confirm acceptance of the offer by carefully reading the conditions in the offer letter and paying the required enrollment and registration fees. The school then guides families through the next steps, including submitting original versions of previous report cards, a certified copy of the birth certificate or passport, a 4×6 portrait photo and (for Grade 10 entry) the lower secondary graduation certificate. At this stage, families also follow the school’s tuition-fee payment schedule for the upcoming school year. 5. Before the official first day of classes, new students and their parents are invited to attend an orientation day at the campus. Families will receive practical guidance about daily routines, meet key teachers and staff, and have time to become familiar with classrooms and shared spaces. The school also provides student uniforms and beginning-of-year stationery to help children prepare for the start of term. |
