REGISTRATION AND ASSESSMENTS
Downe House is an academically selective school and admission is by competitive assessment, interview and subject to a reference from your daughter’s school. For families hoping to secure a bursary, a means-tested preliminary assessment will be conducted before assessment, to give you an indication whether you would meet the criteria or not.
