Consideration of an offer of a place

As a small caring school, we are able to offer most pupils a wonderful journey through preparatory school. In considering applicants, we aim to ensure that any child offered a place at Elmhurst will be able to fit happily into the school and be able to benefit from, and cope with, the challenging, broad curriculum we provide. We always look beyond the current ability of the child and try to gauge their possible potential in our assessment process, which is conducted individually for all age groups.

Offers for places at the school are made following assessment. Those entering scholarship applications may be asked to take part in an additional assessment depending on the individual situation.

Accepting a place

A deposit of £700 is payable upon acceptance of a place offered. This deposit will be returned when your son leaves Elmhurst in Year 6, subject to any outstanding amounts. It is non refundable in the event your son does not join the school.

Should you have any questions about the application process, our Admissions Manager can be reached via email on admissions@elmhurstschool.net, by phone on 0208 688 0661 or you can complete our online form and we will get in touch with you.
