Admissions
After sending an Educational Psychologist's report and recent school reports, parents visit, meet the Headmaster and tour. They then register for an assessment morning (English and Maths, a tour and a chat with the Head of Learning Support). A provisional offer may follow, with a further taster day or overnight boarding stay before the outcome is confirmed.
