ENGLISH LANGUAGE ASSESSMENT

After receiving your form, supporting documents, and application fee, we’ll invite your child to sit an English language assessment. This will ensure they can access our curriculum, which is taught in English, and immerse themselves in school life.

The format of your child’s assessment will depend on their age. For example, students joining us in secondary will need to demonstrate a higher standard of English than those starting in primary.
