POINTS OF ADMISSION

In Grade 8 we admit 156 boys; we have 6 general sets of 26 Students each. In addition to our Admission policy mentioned above, admission is based on the boys’ performance in our Entrance Exam together with their final Grade 7 report and a confidential report from their Prep School. Applicants who are not admitted in Grade 8 may be placed on a waiting list and would be interviewed should a vacancy arise.

Boys from Bishops Prep are granted automatic entry but the Principal has the right to refuse entry in certain circumstances such as payment record, disciplinary record and academic performance.

The closing date for application to Grade 8 2025 is Thursday 1st February 2024.

Entry in subsequent grades will be subject to vacancies and will follow an interview.
