Admissions Guidelines

The admissions process at The Perse ensures that each student is placed in a year group that aligns with their age and developmental stage, allowing them to thrive academically and personally.

However, exceptions might be made for students who might be repeating a year, regardless of their age. In such cases, students may be placed in the most appropriate year group to better match their academic progress.

Students undergo an entry assessment as part of the admissions process, which helps determine their appropriate year group placement. The principal will make the final decision on their placement.
