Following a successful registration, candidates will be invited to a scheduled assessment. These evaluations are tailored to the applicant's age and developmental stage to ensure a fair and insightful measure of their potential. The assessment includes academic components, an evaluation of English proficiency, and an exploration of interests and talents.
Announcement

Therefore, a formal admissions decision will be communicated personally via email and/or the school's official channels within a maximum of two working days following the assessment. This efficiency is a hallmark of our professional commitment.

This includes the payment of initial school fees, completion of detailed student data, and the signing of the Parent's Commitment Letter—a document that formalizes our educational partnership. This stage also includes practical arrangements such as measurements for uniforms and the allocation of books and devices, marking the official onboarding into the GCB community.
