What parents ask the admissions office.

For Reception, Year 7 and Year 12, usually yes, and we advise applying a full year ahead. Every other year group normally has places, and often several. Ring and ask; we will tell you exactly what is free rather than encouraging an application we cannot honour.

Ten academic scholarships a year, five at Year 7 and five at Year 12, worth between 25% and 100% of tuition. Year 7 awards are by examination in February; Year 12 awards are on IGCSE results and interview. Applications close on 31 January. Awards cover tuition only.

Fees are set per term, but they can be paid in three monthly instalments within the term at no extra cost, agreed with the bursar before the term starts. Most families who ask are accommodated.

English throughout. French is taught from Year 3 and is compulsory to Year 9. Arabic is an option from Year 7 and Spanish from Year 8. We can support a child with limited English in primary. From Year 9 upwards it becomes very hard and we will say so rather than take the fees.

Yes, covering Kanifing, Serrekunda, Bakau, Fajara and Bijilo, at D7,500 a term. Routes are set in August. If your address is not on one, ask; three families from the same direction is usually enough for us to add a stop.

Capped at twenty four in primary and twenty two in secondary. A Level sets run from eight to fourteen. The overall teacher to pupil ratio is one to fourteen.

Yes, and they are applied automatically with no form. The second child is 10% off tuition and the third and any after are 15% off.

Yes, wherever there is space, and it is common here because families are posted in and out through the year. The process is the same and we will usually assess within a week for a family already in the country.

No. We are a day school and there is no plan to change that.

In 2026, sixty one of sixty eight leavers went to university, in the United Kingdom, Ghana, Senegal, Turkey, Morocco and the United States. We write UCAS references and support applications to Ghanaian, Senegalese and American systems as well. The head of sixth form is the person to talk to and she will meet families in Year 11.

Yes, and we would prefer it. Tours run Tuesday and Thursday mornings in term at 09:00 and 11:00, take about ninety minutes and include time in classrooms while lessons are actually happening. Ring +220 439 2200. No charge and no obligation.
