5. Trial Day & Testing

A trial day is set up at the family’s earliest convenience. This trial day will help all parties to determine if this is the right school for the children. It is a good way to see if your child enjoys the class, their fellow students and the routine of the day.

On the trial day, we will conduct several small tests on your child/ren to help determine if there are any learning needs of which the school needs to be made aware.

6. College Council Submission

All enrolment forms, reports and trial day information need to be submitted to the College Council. They will make the final decision on your child’s application for enrolment.

7. Acceptance Letter

Upon approval from the College Council, an acceptance letter will be sent to families. This letter will outline a start date for your child/ren. School uniforms may be purchased anytime after this acceptance letter is received.

8. Deregistration Process

A full term’s notice is required when informing Edinburgh College that your child/ren are requesting deregistration from our school.
