Step 1: Application Form and fee. Complete the Application Form via OpenApply, the admissions portal. On submission you receive an invoice for the £240 (inclusive of VAT) non-refundable Application Fee, payable online by credit or debit card. Nursery application form and School application form are available depending on the age group.
Step 2: Supporting Documents. After submission and payment of the application fee, a checklist appears. Provide a Parent Statement about your child (include an original-language copy if translated) and a Student Statement. Include a Language Profile and a Teacher Reference, along with school reports from the previous two years and any other certificates or documents. If you cannot obtain documents, discuss possible alternatives with admissions.
Step 3: Meet the principal. You and your child will be invited to meet with Will Bowry (Senior School Principal) or Helen Enisuoh (Junior School Principal) for a face-to-face meeting to assess whether Dwight is a good match for your child's needs. The meeting may be conducted virtually if necessary. The meeting helps determine fit with the school's approach and the student's educational goals.
Step 4: Admissions Committee Review. After receiving the completed Application Form, required documents and application fee, the file is reviewed by the Admissions Committee. You will be informed in writing of the decision—whether a place will be offered, declined, waitlisted or further steps are required. To secure a place, complete the Acceptance Form and pay the Deposit. We are happy to meet students or conduct Google Meet interviews; if joining mid-year, a taster day may be required to evaluate the student.
