Admissions

Admissions
1. Arrange a school visit or open house.
Parents are invited to tour the campus, meet the Registrar, and possibly connect with heads of Primary or Secondary. Visits include a tour, meetings with key staff, and explanations of assessment procedures.

2. Complete and submit an application form.
Application forms can be downloaded from the school website or collected from the Registrar. Each student needs a separate form, and submissions must include the application fee and the most recent school reports.

3. Undergo admissions assessment.
Depending on the age group, the school will administer assessments in English and mathematics, and conduct an interview. Younger students may instead complete an in-class observation. Past school reports are reviewed before assessments proceed.

4. Review and admissions decision.
Subject teachers evaluate test results and provide recommendations. The Vice Principals of the relevant divisions review the full application dossier, including references, before confirming a decision.

5. Offer of place and confirmation.
Successful applicants are notified by the Registrar. A formal invoice will be issued, and payment must be made before the student’s first day. Final enrolment is only confirmed after all forms, fees, and documentation are complete.
