Admissions
School applicants spend a day in their prospective class, with a brief informal academic and social assessment and a hot lunch, followed by a feedback meeting with the Headteacher. Nursery/Preschool children attend a short 30-minute unaccompanied play session before an offer. Registration and deposit are then completed with the Registrar.
