Admissions Process
Admissions Process for UK Pupils
We welcome Day Boys from Reception (age 4) to year 8 and Boarders from years 3 to 8.
- Entry to the school can be at the start of any of the three terms in the academic year.
- The first step in the process is to come and experience our unique ethos and environment in person.
- During your visit you will meet with the Headmaster and have a tour of the school. There is no need to bring your son at this stage but he is of course very welcome!
- The next step is for you to register your son with us. He will then be invited to a Familiarisation Day up to 12-18 months before entry. He will join classes and activities and will be well looked after by two boys of a similar age (we call them 'paters') to give him a taste of a day in the life of a Horris Hill pupil. We want to make sure that your son will thrive at Horris Hill.
- Once your son has visited us for the day we will write to you with our decision.
- Acceptance of a place. Simply return our acceptance form together with the deposit and your son's place will be secured.
Admissions Process for International Pupils
