Admissions
Applying to New Hall
Admissions Process
Most girls and boys join New Hall School at 3+, 4+, 11+ and 13+. There is also a Sixth Form intake at 16+. Students may also join at other times, but we do not accept students into Year 11 and Year 13. We are looking for girls and boys who are academic, have interests outside the classroom (be it in drama, music, art & technology or sport) and who are going to contribute fully to the life of a boarding and day school. We try to make the procedure for applying for a place at New Hall School as straightforward as possible. If you have questions about any aspect of our admissions procedure, please do not hesitate to contact Miss Elizabeth Dodd, Registrar, who will be pleased to assist. You will also find information on the website www.newhallschool.co.uk. We appreciate that choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make. When considering New Hall School for your daughter or son, you are advised to make an enquiry as soon as possible and to register your child. The best thing to do is to visit us, whether on an Open Day or at a time convenient for you, when you will have the opportunity for an individual or group tour with a student. During your visit, you will meet either Katherine Jeffrey, Principal, or David Callender, Headteacher of the Preparatory School, or another senior member of staff. We hope that you experience first-hand the happy atmosphere at New Hall. You may take the opportunity to explore the magnificent grounds and exceptional facilities and, of course, to meet the students and staff.
