ADMISSIONS
The school office is responsible for all admissions enquiries, registration and entry procedures.
General Information
Prospective pupils and their families are encouraged to visit the school as early as possible; we believe that this is the only way to fully appreciate the lovely grounds and excellent facilities, but also to understand the very happy and fulfilling all-round education provided at Rockport.
A personal visit can be arranged through the School Office and Taster Days are available for prospective pupils with no obligation to register. We also hold a number of Open Days throughout the school year.
Rockport is a selective school and admission is based upon academic merit, however, our selection process is designed to also identify pupils who can benefit from our balanced and well-rounded education. A positive contribution towards the life of the school, rather than by narrow entrance exams alone, to us, is a more valuable requirement. A reference from a pupil’s current school will be requested.
A Registration Form will accompany the Prospectus and this should be completed and returned to the School Office along with the appropriate registration fee.
An acceptance form will be issued to all registered families at the appropriate time in the year prior to admission. This will guarantee your child a place, subject to satisfying the relevant entrance requirements. On completion of this, a parent contract and appropriate deposit should be submitted. (Deposit is refundable on completion of the child’s education at Rockport.)
International Students
We warmly welcome International students at Rockport School. The school can sponsor a child’s visa for the duration of their study at Rockport School if they are joining us from overseas, although we do not manage the visa application process.
Fees
Rockport School is a registered charity and a school that is committed to diversity and accessibility.
We offer scholarships and bursary support that celebrates a wide range of talents and aims to ensure that there are minimal barriers to accessing the unique type of education that Rockport provides.
