Admissions

 Applicants must meet the age requirements established by current Ministry of Education regulations and take part in the school’s 2026 admissions process. Priority for available places is given in the following order:

  • Applicants with siblings already enrolled at the school
  • Children of former students or current members of staff
  • Former students returning due to a parent’s job relocation
  • Students transferring from other ISP schools

Families are asked to provide the following documents as part of the application process:

Assessment requirements vary according to the year group applied for.

For Playgroup, children are assessed in areas such as autonomy, socio-emotional development, expressive and receptive language, and thinking skills.

For Pre-K and Kindergarten, applicants are assessed in the same developmental areas, with additional activities in language, mathematics and English.

For Primary, Middle and Senior School, applicants complete assessments in language, mathematics and English. The syllabus is shared once the assessment date has been confirmed.

Our admissions policy follows clear priority criteria when allocating available places. Preference is given to applicants with siblings at the school, children of former students or staff members, former students returning because of a parent’s job relocation, and students transferring from other ISP schools.

As part of the process, applicants also complete an academic assessment. For Primary, Middle and Senior School, a minimum score of 60% in each assessment is required.

For Pre-K and Kindergarten, applicants sitting the assessment in the first semester must achieve 75%, while those applying in the second semester must achieve 90%.

Details of the fees for the 2026 admissions process, including tuition and any incorporation fee, can be found in the document Fees for New Students.
