Admissions

Admissions
Preschool applicants do not need English; Grades 1–8 require adequate English, verified by standardized tests. For Grades 1–8, other factors include the child's age, earlier achievements, opinions of previous schools, and the parents' willingness to cooperate (qualification interview). Tests are administered by the school psychologist on the school premises, and the fee for the tests is payable at the school secretarial office when the student is enrolled for the test.
Phase II – The Education Agreement is signed by the Parents/Guardians once the student has qualified. The School reserves the right to place the student in the grade it deems most suitable for him/her. The School may refuse admission if any specific needs cannot be fully met, or if there is a negative opinion from the previous school.
Phase III – The entry into the Student Register. The Student Register entry completes the recruitment process. The School may place the student in the most suitable grade following Phase II and Phase III.
