Enrolment for 2024

At this time of the year, we remind all families who might be planning to move on from the College in 2023 to please let us know. There are a number of reasons that we do this, but in particular it means we are able to:

  • Arrange staffing to ensure we have the right number of quality teachers
  • Schedule a student and staff timetable for lessons and activities 
  • Offer positions to families on our waiting list to join the College
