It all begins with an email to Ms McNamara to arrange a tour of our school and a meeting with one of our Assistant Principals.
Families need not wait for an Open Day and applications for admission can be made at any time during the year.
Meet us
Two of our pupils from Middle and Upper school will give you a guided tour of our school. This gives the opportunity for you to see the rapport between pupils and teachers and experience the happy, busy atmosphere of our school.
The tour is followed by a meeting with Mr Glover (Middle and Upper) or Mrs Wright (Pre-Prep and Lower) to discuss the curriculum, values and experiences that your child will receive with a Tower College education. Following this, you will meet with the registrar to discuss enrolment.
Taster Days
We understand that starting a new school can be a difficult time for pupils of any age and we try to ensure that all new pupils have a good start and quickly feel confident and secure in their new school.
Following registration, your child can attend a taster day. For Pre-Prep and Lower school your child will be informally assessed to determine what development plan should be put in place. Applicants to Middle and Upper School will be required to pass a standardised assessment, and pupils in Year 7 will complete an entrance exam in English and Maths.

You are very welcome to visit the school on any day. We understand that starting a new school can be a difficult time for pupils of any age and we try to ensure that all new pupils have a good start and quickly feel confident and secure in their new school.
Admission to Tower College can take place at any stage of education, although the most common times are at Reception and Year 7. Most children start at the beginning of a term, but occasionally an immediate start may be appropriate.
The admission’s procedure normally follows an individual visit and tour or a visit to an Open Day. On such a visit, parents and children can meet the Principal, Assistant Principals, Heads of Departments, can view the facilities, visit lessons, and, most importantly, meet some of our pupils and teaching staff.
The Lower and Middle School (Reception to Year 6) is not academically selective, although pupils need to be able to access the curriculum successfully and behave well. Admission is by means of a taster day, where we can assess your child, and together we can determine whether Tower College is the right school for your child.
The Upper School is selective for children not already in our Middle School, and entrance into Year 7 is dependent on performance in our Senior School Entrance Examination, a taster day and school reports. Admission to Year 7 after the Entrance Day, or to Years 8 to 10, is based on a taster day, assessments and school reports. For academic reasons, admission to GCSE courses after the start of Year 10 is unusual, but in special cases may be allowed.
