There is an Admissions Assessment which is mandatory for each student entering Grammar in Junior Primary to Grade 12. Tests can be administered on site or couriered to a qualified teacher if the student lives at a distance such that travel to the school would be inconvenient.
Junior Primary and Senior Primary Assessments take place November through February.
January 30 (Grades 1-12)
February 26 (Scholarship Application Deadline)
February 27 (Grades 5-12, also Scholarship Testing date)
April 17 (Grades 1-12)
May 15 (Grades 5-12)
Entrance Assessments for sutndets entering Junior and Senior Primary are scheduled individually by appointment, through the Admissions Office at 431-8550.
Following the assessment, the school will call to arrange for an interview for the prospective student and parents with the Admissions Officer and Senior Faculty once the entrance assessments and submitted application information have been fully evaluated. The interview will take about one hour.
Parent interviews for Junior and Senior Primary students take place at the time of the assessment.
After all steps are complete, the school will send a letter to (1) offer acceptance, (2) wait list or (3) defer. If offered acceptance, the family is asked to respond within two weeks with a letter to the Admissions office accepting the space and with deposit payment.
