INTERVIEWS
Kindergarten interviews are informal meetings between parents, child and teachers. Your child can play in the Kindergarten while you talk with the teachers. Kindergarten interviews usually last about 45 minutes.
In the Lower School, we arrange a 3-day visit for your child to the relevant class. During that time, ideally after school on the second day, two teachers, including the prospective Class Teacher, interview the child by him/herself. They may ask him/her to skip, run, jump, clap rhythms, there may be some recitation as well as writing, reading, drawing and number work, at a level relevant to the age of the child. We try to do all of this in as relaxed a way as possible and the child should not feel he/she is being tested. The purpose of the interview is for us to try to find out whether or not we would be able to meet his/her needs. There is an opportunity for parents and the Class Teacher to ask any further questions they may have while your child is supervised by the other teacher.
A decision will be made and you will hear within a week whether or not we are able to offer your child a place in the school.
The High School admissions procedure involves steps:
- Student and Parent Application forms need to be completed and returned, along with a copy of the most recent school report, and the application fee of £50.
- An interview will be scheduled upon receipt of both application forms.
- A decision is made and you will be notified within two weeks of the interview.
