Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

  • How long does the admissions process take?
    From the moment we offer your child a place, it should take no longer than two weeks to complete the process. There are a few factors involved, however, and each family’s admissions journey is different. Don’t worry, though, we’ll support you through each stage.
  • When can my child start?
    Your child can join us at any time during the academic year, provided we have places available.
  • How does the process differ if my company is paying the tuition fees?
    If your company is paying your child’s fees, our admissions and finance teams are happy to deal with them directly. Please let us know as early as possible in the application process.
  • When do I need to pay the application fee?
    You’ll need to pay our application fee after you’ve accepted our written offer of a place.
