  • When should we start preparing for private school applications?

    Ideally 12 – 18 months in advance. Early planning allows time for academic development, extracurricular building, and thoughtful school selection.

  • What are the typical entry requirements for private schools?

    Requirements vary by school, but most include a written test, an interview, school reports, and recommendation letters.

  • How do I know which grades each school admits? If it’s not a listed intake year, is there no chance?
