The admissions assessments are in English and Math, and a personal statement is collected as a part of the application. We have students who come from different curriculum, both national and international. Therefore assessments are largely skill-based and tested for ability levels expected in the grade that the student is applying for. No special preparation, beyond a good night’s sleep and healthy breakfast, is required or suggested for the admissions assessments.

From Grade 2, students will receive homework that helps them to build their self-management, mathematics, and literacy skills. As students matriculate to the higher grades, the amount of homework assigned increases appropriately.Meaningful and age-appropriate reading and homework is assigned.
