Entry and Induction Days
We offer a flexible entrance policy and pupils may enter at any age and during any term.
Pupils are invited to join us for a day visit, during which they are assessed. This allows them the freedom to experience the full range of subjects on offer, meet staff and pupils and make friends. If a pupil is considering a boarding place then we offer the opportunity to spend a night in the Boarding House.

Sixth-Form
The entry requirements for a place in our sixth-form is 5 GCSE grades A*-C. Pupils are invited to join our Lower Sixth for a day's trial, having selected the subjects that they may like to study at sixth-form level.
