| Brief description of entry evaluation required |
The admission meeting gives AIS an opportunity to get to know the student and the family, to find out about previous schooling and why the student wants to join AIS as well as what type of programme would be suitable. AIS looks at academic and non-academic factors such as the student’s motivation, interests and preferred way of learning. Students who are not native English speakers must take an English assessment test and reach a B1+ level in order to join our full programme. All students wishing to join in grade 10 or 11 must take entry assessments in Maths and Science to ensure they are at the right level. |
