Admissions

Admissions
Step One: Initial Enquiry. Families may call the School Reception, email the Admissions Team, or request a call to collect details and book an appointment.

Step Two: Consultation with the Registrar and School Tour. The Admissions Team meets parents to introduce them to the School, provides an information pack in English or Mongolian on request, and arranges a tour. The Admissions Team is usually available to meet with parents between 13:00 and 15:00 on Mondays and Wednesdays during term time; other appointments may be available by request. A meeting with the Headmaster can be arranged if possible.

Step Four: Assessment and Taster Sessions. After formal registration and payment of the non-refundable fee, an entrance assessment session is arranged at the School, which includes a written examination where appropriate and an age-appropriate interview with a Head of Key Stage, Deputy Head Master or the Head Master as age and availability permit. International candidates not currently resident in Mongolia may sit the Entrance Assessments at their current school, at a British Council Office, or at a British Embassy under proper supervision and invigilated conditions.
