Admission Policy

 

Admission to Hill House School is based on the following criteria:

  • A prospective parent visit and a successful interview/meeting between the Principal, or delegated person, and the prospective student(s).
  • The successful completion of a day visit by all prospective students in Reception to Year 10. (The School does not normally expect Nursery children to undertake a day visit but a home visit by a member of staff may be carried out.)
  • A satisfactory report from the prospective student's previous school, playgroup or day-care centre covering academic and behavioural standards.
  • Clarification that due notice has been observed in the case of a child joining from another independent school.
  • The successful completion of entry assessments, carried out during the day visit, for all students from Reception to Year 10. Entry assessments will, wherever possible, be carried out on the basis of normal school work done during the day visit.
  • September entry to Year 7 will be carried out by means of formal testing on an annual date each January.
