Evaluation and Assessment

Completed applications will be reviewed by our admissions team and your child/ren will be invited for an entry assessment.

Early Years (Early Childhood 1, Early Childhood 2 and Kindergarten)

- The assessment is an observation of the child’s social interaction and play.

Grades 1 to 5

- All students should undergo a one-on-one assessment with a grade-level teacher in both Math and English.

Middle and High School (Grades 6 to 12)

Applicants are required to take an online standardised test and participate in an online interview with the Head of Section.

Academic acceptance will be determined based on the combined data from the assessments, as well as information from school or nursery reports, confidential teacher recommendations, and interviews.

Acceptance

The review process may take up to 7 school days. If your child’s application is successful, you will receive the official acceptance via email, with instructions on completing the registration process and securing their place. If we have reached our maximum capacity in a grade level approved candidates are placed in a waiting pool.

Please note that applications for learning support, or those involving other special circumstances may take longer. Feel free to contact us at any time if you have questions about your child(ren)'s status in the admissions process.
