Admissions

Sarum Hall’s main intake of pupils is into the Nursery class in the September after their third birthday. Occasional places do occur higher up the school from time to time.

The admissions process begins upon registration; we recommend you register your daughter at least two years prior to entry. A registration form should be completed and returned to the school with a non-refundable registration fee of £100.

After registration, parents are invited to visit the school and have a personal meeting with the Headmistress. These meetings occur between October and March, two years before entry, and include a tour of the school during the school day. After this visit, prospective parents are asked to write confirming their continued interest in a place for their daughter.

Assessment

Girls entering the school at the age of three are not assessed. From Year 1, girls are tested in mathematics and English. Reports from previous schools are requested.

Siblings

The school has a policy of accepting siblings. Older siblings will be offered a place should a vacancy arise.

Offering of places

Places are offered fifteen months before entry. Due to a high level of demand, it is not possible to defer places or acceptance. An enrolment deposit of one term’s full fee is payable in two stages. £500 is due on acceptance of the offer of a place and the balance is due seven months before entry. The deposit is refunded with the pupil’s final account.
