From Reception to Year 2 a one-on-one assessment is done with the learners. From Year 3 to Year 13 a Cognitive Assessment Test is completed by prospectiove learners.

The one-on-one assessment done is Key Stage 1 is done to ascertain whether the child is ready for formal learning that starts in Reception. In Year 1 and 2 it is a reading based assessment that would tell us if the child is ready for Year 1 or 2. From year 3 upwards, it is a cognitive assessment that would tell us the type of learner a child is, i.e. visual or spatial and how they would fare within the British Curriculum.

Our admissions are open all year, we therefore accept applications throughout the course of the year.
