02The five stepsAs the school's procedure page describes them

From the first call to the result.

  1. Call or visit.

    Call the line for your child's section, between 9.00 am and 1.00 pm, or come to the Front Office with your questions.

  2. Collect and hand in the form.

  3. Assessment or test.

    The school calls the parents in. Playgroup and Nursery children sit an assessment; from KG I to Class IX the child sits a written test in English, Bengali and Mathematics; for Class XI, admission is based on the mock examinations and the O Level result.

  4. Meet the Principal.

    After the assessment or test, the child and the parents meet the Principal, who makes the decision. There is no interview for Class XI.

  5. Hear the result.

    By telephone. Make sure the number on the form is one you answer.
