Entrance Criteria

Each application is assessed individually and entrance will be dependent on a range of criteria including an interview with the Head Master, academic / test results and a reference from your current school.

All applicants are expected to have a good grasp of the English Language. Overseas pupils may be required to undergo an IELTS examination, which can be arranged via a British Council office. Each year we accept a small number of pupils who need additional learning support. Entry for these pupils may be dependent upon an assessment by an external Educational Psychologist.

Academic, music and all-rounder scholarships are available at 11+, 13+ and 16+.
