Step by Step Guidance for Admissions:
Step 1. Make an Enquiry
We will need you to make an enquiry – Enquire now , once the information is received by our admissions department, a member of the team will connect with you to make an appointment at a mutually convenient time to discuss and explore a “Wellington Education”.
In the interest of safety and security, an appointment is necessary.
Step 2. Register
Once you have visited Wellington College and met our staff, we know that you will want to make an application. You will then be directed to our Admission Application form, which must be completed and received with all the required documents and the registration fee.
Once all the above has been received and we have a receipt of your bank transfer or payment, our Admissions Team will contact you to guide you through the next steps and arrange an assessment.
Step 3. Assessment
At Wellington College, we believe passionately in all-round education and therefore our assessment for entry considers the character, interests, talents, and personality of every individual child.
We are looking for boys and girls with potential to become intellectual, inspired and independent learners within an English-language environment. We want them to have the desire and ability to contribute broadly across the co-curriculum so they can develop fully as individuals.
An Assessment can be arranged once we have received an application registration form for your child together with the application registration fee. The procedure for each entry age group can be read in the school Admission policy document.

It is important that any special educational needs are disclosed at this stage and related documentation such as educational psychologist reports or Individual Education Plans (IEPs) are shared so that we can determine if Wellington College is able to provide appropriate additional support.
The decision on whether Wellington College is able to offer a place is communicated by email within ten working days of assessment.
Step 5: Offer of Admissions
If successful, you will receive an Offer of Admissions letter by email. This will detail the confirmed year group of entry, enrolment year and term as well as any specific terms of the offer.
You will be asked to accept this offer by signing an Acceptance of a Place Form and agreeing to the Terms and Conditions for Student Enrolment within 15 days of receipt of the letter.
Step 6: Welcome & Onboarding
Once the place has been accepted, the non-refundable admission registration fee, refundable security fee deposit together with the tuition fee are payable in advance. Once received, the welcome email will be sent with all relevant information, documents to be completed prior to onboarding.
New parents are invited to attend the Induction Programme prior to their pupil’s entry to school which is an excellent opportunity for to meet other new parents, Master, Academic leaders and the admissions team who will be more than happy to help.
