The school admits the majority of its Main School population in Year 7, based on a banding assessment undertaken in Year 6. There is very little movement in the school population thereafter and currently, the school is full.
The first stage in the admissions process is to register for the banding assessment (opens 1 July 2025).
Music applicants should follow the instructions at the end of the banding assessment registration.
The deadline for online registration is midday on Tuesday 23 September 2025.
You will receive an email informing you of the outcome of your daughters' banding assessment on or before Friday 31 October 2025.
