Admission Procedure

• All children desiring to attend SICS must go through admission processes. Admission into SICS is contingent upon several criteria:

  1. Purchase of application forms
  2. Parents’ interview
  3. Submission of completed Applications Form
  4. Applicant passing an entrance exam and interview
  5. Availability in the target class level
  6. Final acceptance by SICS Board of Governors

  Entrance test scores, previous school records and interviews will be used to determine the prospective student’s individual ability level.

  Mode of Testing

  The applicants for Pre-Nursery-1 to primary-3 are tested on various skills necessary for admission into their respective classes. While standardized testing is administered to applicants applying for higher classes .

  Admission is at the school’s discretion and the school’s decision is final. However, unsuccessful applicants may apply again at a later date if they believe they will perform better at the entrance examinations.

  

  The school’s objective is not to arbitrarily exclude children but rather to select the most suitable applicants based on the school's assessment criteria including the prospective child's academic performance and potential. Only if a candidate fails to show basic understanding, or shows a lack of potential will they be refused admission.
