ADMISSION

Admission policies

The Vision, Mission, Philosophy and Statement of Objectives serve to guide the administration in determining admission and placement of students

Applications for admission will be accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. The date on which the registration fee is received is taken as the date of application. If a waiting list for any grade is necessary, qualified applicants will be admitted on a first-come, first-served basis within the framework of the nationality balance indicated.

At least one full day's notice is given to teachers prior to a new student starting in class after the admission procedures have been completed. This ensures that all the necessary provisions will have been made and the student is expected in class.

TUITION FEE 2020-21

Grade placement

Admission is granted to a student when it has been determined that the school has a vacancy and an appropriate program to meet his/her individual needs. There is no entrance test required of students, but diagnostic and placement testing, when appropriate, may be required. In most cases such testing is administered only after registration has been completed. The final determination of grade placement will be made by the Head of School.

This placement will reflect the student's previous educational experience, age, maturity, linguistic proficiency and academic needs. In certain circumstances students will be placed in a lower grade level to meet their educational needs.

For a student to be placed in a grade higher than the minimum age indicated, clearly demonstrable superior academic and physical maturity, coupled with social maturity must exist and be judged so by the K&Q. Such advanced placement may only be given under exceptional circumstances and with the written approval of the Head of School.

Students, especially "English as a Second Language" (ESL) students, are expected to follow a complete grade level at K&Q prior to promotion to the next grade. In the case of admission after January, this may mean that students will repeat the second semester of a grade level.

English language

English is the teaching medium in the school and there is an expectation that students have, or will acquire, a satisfactory standard of English. The school maintains an ESL support program. However, it should be stressed that non-English speaking students should gain maximum exposure to the language and if a student does not have a satisfactory standard of English at the time of application, the Head of School may refuse admission if there is no appropriate program to cater for the student's needs.
