Admissions

Admissions

The majority of children enter the School in the Junior House. Children are accepted at older ages if vacancies exist within the appropriate year group.

Parents seeking admission for their children should arrange to visit the school and meet the Headmaster, preferably during term time. After this meeting the Registration Form is completed and sent to the school together with the registration fee (see below).

When the school confirms that the child has a guaranteed place the parent is asked to fill in a Confirmation of Entry Form and to pay the Confirmation of Entry fee as set out below. This sum is deducted from the fee of the child's last term in the school.

For all enquiries regarding admissions please contact:
Mrs Chris Ewer, Headmaster’s Secretary, 01843 862991.

Terms of Admission

A statement of the fees and charges in force at the time of a child's admission to the school is sent to the parents or guardians immediately before the child's admission. The fees and charges at present in force are shown below, but the Governors reserve the right to alter them at their discretion at any time, whether before or after a child's admission. Normally, a full term's notice of any such alteration will be given, but if a significant change in the salaries for the teaching profession takes place, the Governors also reserve the right to include a surcharge on the termly bill to cover such pay awards. This surcharge will be made without special notice and thereafter be incorporated in the termly fee.

Termly Fees

Full boarding £6,360
Weekly Boarding £6,360
Day £5,100

Surcharge on Non-Payment of Fees

Payment is due by the first day of term. A late payment surcharge may be levied at the rate of 2% per month on overdue accounts.

Notice

A full term's notice in writing to the Headmaster is required before a pupil is removed; failing such notice a full term’s fees are payable. Similar notice is required if an 'extra' e.g. music tuition, is to be discontinued.
