Get in Touch
Contact a member of our Admissions Team to find out more about our wonderful school and check availability.
Visit Us
We run open events and private tours throughout the academic year. Open events are a great opportunity to see the school in action, speak to our Senior Leadership Team, our Admissions Team and hear from current pupils.
Apply
When you're ready to take the next step, register your child with us by completing this Hendon Prep Registration Form and returning it to our Admissions Team along with a non-refundable, £120 Registration fee.
This will enable us to start our admission process to ensure that we can meet your child's needs. Forms need to be signed by both parents and may be returned by post, or scanned copies by email.
Receive an Offer
For Preschool
Following registration and depending on your child’s age, we will either invite you and your child to an informal assessment or to an admissions meeting with a member of the Senior Leadership Team to discuss the offer of a place.
For Reception
Following registration your child will be invited into school in the Autumn term prior to their year of entry for an informal assessment. This assessment will be followed by an admissions meeting with a member of the Senior Leadership Team to discuss the offer of a place.
Acceptance
Once we receive your completed Acceptance Form and relevant deposits, we will send you confirmation of your child’s place in the school.
Chance vacancies
From time to time we do have places become available throughout the year from Reception to Year 6. Should you wish your child to be considered for one of these places we would ask that you visit the school and register your child with us.
Following Registration we ask for copies of your child’s latest school reports and arrange for them to sit an age appropriate assessment in Maths and English. Once these assessments have been returned to school and marked, we will invite your child into school for a Taster Session.
Please note that in ALL cases, assessments and subsequent offers are booked and made in order of application.
Early Years’ funding available
We are delighted to announce that Early Years’ funding is now available to all 3 and 4 year olds in Preschool*.
This government funding, often referred to as ’15 hours free funding’, is available to every child from the term after they turn 3, and in an independent school setting, equates to a saving of approximately £900 per term for parents. Please contact our Admissions Team directly to find out more.
*Terms & conditions apply.
International Admissions Process
Hendon Prep holds highly trusted sponsor status with the United Kingdom Visas and Immigration (UKVI).
We are able to support your child with a Tier 4 child student visa. The International Admissions Process and Fees structure differ slightly from that of domestic applicants.
