Step 2 – Take a tour: An in-person campus tour or a virtual tour is available. The tour helps families understand the BST community, facilities, and daily life. It provides an opportunity to meet staff and ask questions about the program and arrangements.
Step 3 – Send us your application: Applications are open all year round. In addition to the online admissions form, supporting documents are required. The school confirms receipt of documents and keeps you updated on progress.
Step 4 – Entrance assessment and parent meeting: The child sits a short entrance assessment, age-appropriate. You'll be invited to meet BST teachers. The assessment and parent meeting help determine suitability and inform next steps.
Step 5 – Confirming your place: If BST confirms the school is the right fit, a place is offered. The offer is contingent on meeting outstanding requirements and the family accepting the place. The school will communicate next steps and a start date.
Step 6 – Starting school: After place confirmation, you'll receive information on uniforms, schedules, transport, and buddy support. A buddy is assigned to support the child during their first days. The school ensures readiness for the first day and provides guidance to families.
