Headmistress, Mrs. Hilary Marsden, is always happy to meet with parents to talk about their child and their application to The Webber. We are delighted to be able to offer slots available throughout the school day and after school. Please contact our Admissions Registrar to arrange a meeting.

3. Arrange a Taster and Assessment Visit

The next step is for your child to visit the school for two days. At this stage, we require a non-refundable fee of £250 for UK residents and £300 for International Students, details of this fee can be found in our School Fees Booklet or the Admissions Process Booklet. You will be sent an Application Pack to complete and return to the Registrar. The Taster/Assessment days will then be confirmed by the Registrar for a mutually convenient date.

4. Attend the Taster and Assessment Days

Your child (Year 3 and above) will complete an online multiple-choice style verbal and non-verbal reasoning assessment. For Reception and Years 1 and 2, the class teacher will complete a series of informal written and verbal assessments. At this stage, we will request a reference from your child’s previous school.

5. Offer

A provisional offer is made in writing, pending receipt of a written reference from your child’s current school, the completed admissions forms, and the general refundable deposit of £1000*. Once a formal offer is made and accepted, a start date is confirmed and a place is guaranteed. Offers are usually valid for a period of two weeks.

The Admissions Team is on hand throughout the process to answer any questions you may have or provide you with further information. We look forward to meeting you and your child.
