Admissions guide

The early-years international school admissions pack

A free editor-curated pack focused on early-years admissions (ages 3 to 7) to international schools. Early-years applications are different in important ways from primary or secondary: there is less transcript work, more observation, and the family interview carries more weight.

What is in the pack

A school visit observation checklist for early years, an interview preparation guide for parents of young children, a sample of the kinds of questions admissions teams ask, a 9-month application timeline, and an explainer on how Reception, Year 1, Kindergarten and Pre-K transition between systems.

Who this is for

Expat families with children entering Nursery, Reception, Year 1, Year 2 or equivalent at international schools.
