Frequently asked questions

What is a registration deadline?

The last date a school accepts an application for an entry year. Registering means returning the school's form and paying its fee, which puts your child on the list for assessment.

When do independent school registration deadlines fall?

For 11+ and 13+ at London day schools, mostly late October or early November of the year before entry. Some boarding and 13+ schools close earlier, sometimes two years ahead. 16+ deadlines usually fall between October and December.

What happens if I miss a registration deadline?

Most selective schools will not accept a late registration. It is worth calling the admissions office, as a place can open through the waiting list, but plan on waiting a year.

Does registering commit me to anything?

No. You pay a non-refundable fee, normally £100 to £350, and your child is entered for assessment. You do not have to sit the assessment or accept an offer.

Can I register at more than one school?

Yes, and most families do. Check assessment dates first, as several London schools assess on the same days in January.
