Applications may be submitted up to three years prior to the desired year of entry. Beyond Nursery, place availability relies on withdrawals and, as such, demand generally exceeds availability of places in all other year groups.
Entry at Nursery is strongly encouraged for younger applicants. Additional considerations apply for children who are Singapore citizens (please refer to our Admissions Policy and Conditions Governing Enrolment).
Below outlines our admissions process, and our team are on hand to guide you if you require help along the way.
