Admission
Pre-Prep Admissions Procedure (Reception, Prep 1 and Prep 2)
Please find below details of how to apply for a place in the Pre-Prep School for your daughter.
Farlington holds several Open Days, organised throughout the School year. We strongly recommend that you and your daughter come and see the School, which will give you the opportunity to speak to the staff and ask any questions you may have. However, if the dates for the Open Days are not suitable, tours are conducted personally by Mrs Joy Baggs, Head of the Prep School. Should you wish to attend any event at the School, or request a tour, please could you indicate your interest to the Registrar, Mrs Jo Coveney – 01403 282573, email: registrar@farlingtonschool.net
The usual age of entry to the Pre-Prep School is 4+, although girls may enter at a later stage, dependent upon a place being available and the entry requirements being met. Entry to Pre-Prep classes is by family interview, followed by an informal assessment by the class teacher. This involves the girls having a Taster Day, visiting and taking part in a class with their peers, and being observed by the class teacher.
In order to be considered for entry, parents must complete a Registration Form, which should be sent to the Registrar, together with a non-refundable registration fee of £80. Once this has been received, we will arrange a suitable date for your daughter’s Taster Day. We would normally be able to confirm the offer a place a week after the Taster Day and assessment has taken place.
For those girls who are currently at the Nursery, and wish to progress into Reception class, familiarisation and induction days are held towards the end of the Summer term.
