GRADE LISTING

ADMISSION PROCEDURE

We operate an inclusive admissions policy at MIS and will always try our best to find a place here for your child. As English is used throughout the school for all subjects, it is important that our students have an appropriate level of English to cope with the demands of the curriculum. Moreover, the English and Cambridge International Curriculum on which we have built our programme of study, is quite demanding and fast paced with rigorous attainment standards.

EARLY YEARS:PRIMARY SCHOOL (KEY STAGE 1&2):

There are no admissions tests for children applying to our Early Yearsclasses (Pre – school A, Pre – school B and Kindergarten). However, many parents choose to arrange a trial day in the classroom so that their child can get a feel of the class. This also gives the class teacher an opportunity to make an assessment as to whether or not MIS will be the right fit for your child’s attainment standards.

PRIMARY SCHOOL (KEY STAGE 1&2):
Children applying for a place in our Primary school (Year 1 – 6) will be given a short test to assess their English ability. If your child’s level of English is below the standard necessary to access the curriculum at their age, we
may offer them a place conditional on their being enrolled in our English Learning Support (ELS) programme, for which there is a mandatory additional fee. Children may also be invited to observe the class for which they wish to enrol, typically for one day. During this observation session the class teacher may conduct some informal tests and assessments.

Secondary school:
For a student to be successful in our secondary school programme they will need to have a good level of both
English and Mathematics. Applicants will be asked to take an English test during the admissions process and more detailed academic assessments will then be made either during an optional observation day or during the first week of attendance. At Key Stage 3 (Years 7 – 9), if a prospective student’s level of English is below the standard necessary to access the curriculum at their age, we may offer them a place conditional on their being enrolled in our ELS programme, for which there is an additional fee. Our students spend Years 10 – 11 (Key Stage 4) concentrating on IGCSE courses. Any student applying to join the school at this stage will be interviewed and assessed by members of the Secondary management team and Key Stage 4 teaching staff. Applicants must demonstrate that they have the potential to be successful IGCSE candidates to be considered for admission.
