Experience what makes us different
We run regular admissions events and open days designed to offer interested families an authentic taste of life at Westbourne – from Pre-School to Sixth Form.
Our open days and taster events are often heavily subscribed so early expression of interest is encouraged. We keep the groups intentionally small to reflect the reality of our small school, personalised environment.
We are pleased to operate a rolling application process throughout the year, accepting the most suitable candidates on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. Places are limited due to our small class sizes and highly tailored approach, and therefore early registration for key entry stages – Reception, Year 7, Year 9 and the IB Sixth Form – is recommended.
