How to Apply

At Haileybury, we believe in the merits of an all-round education. Academic excellence and intellectual curiosity are encouraged and all elements of our co-curricular provision are strong.

Underpinning every child’s education at Haileybury is outstanding pastoral care. Our pupils learn the value of community and service and experience leadership as well as learning to work as part of a team. A Haileybury education is open-minded and forward-looking. It is an education that provides pupils with a moral compass whilst preparing them for life as successful global citizens.

Haileybury is an academically selective school with entries at 11+ (Year 7), 13+ (Year 9), 14+ (Year 10) and 16+ (Year 12). We also admit pupils into Year 8 where space allows. Haileybury also offers a Pre-IB course for selected students wishing to join Year 11. 

We know that choosing a senior school for your child is an important decision and we hope that you are inspired to come and visit us to find out more. 

The general entrance procedure involves four main stages.

Stage 1 – Visit Haileybury

Families are warmly invited to visit the School. You can attend one of our Open Days or make an individual appointment during term time.

Stage 2 – Registration

To register your child you will need to complete the Registration Form and pay a non-refundable Registration Fee of £200 and submit a copy of your child’s passport and most recent school report.

On receipt of the necessary documentation and payment, we will place your child’s name on our entry list which will ensure that they will be considered as a candidate to Haileybury.

Stage 3 – Entrance Assessment

All registered candidates will be invited to sit our entrance examination tests and have an interview at Haileybury.

As part of the procedure, we will request a reference from your child’s current school.
