Dickinson British School Consulting

Application Process

Application

In order to build up an accurate picture of your child, we ask you to complete and return our Application Form in the first instance.

Individual consultation

After a free and impartial consultation with Gina by telephone, she will recommend a selection of British boarding schools for your consideration.

Introduction to recommended schools

In order to introduce your child to the schools in question, we will also then require the following information:

Copy of your child’s two most recent school reports; 1-2 page (A4) essay in English by your child on his / her own person and expectations of UK boarding; recent photo of your child.

We will, of course, provide you with information about the recommended schools.

Conditional offers and appointments

We will promptly inform you whether the schools can consider your child for a place, and will arrange convenient appointments for you to visit the schools / for your child’s interview at the schools. Some schools may also require your child to sit an entrance test.

Decision time

The schools will then confirm whether they can formally offer your child a place. If you are struggling to make that all-important final decision on which is the British school for your child, Gina will be happy to assist by listening to your impressions and relaying her own thoughts and experiences.
