4. Normally after the issue of exam results, no request for re-testing or sharing of results will be accepted.

5. Failing in submitting the admissions requirements within ten working days from the first admission e-mail and failing in attending the assessment scheduled will lead to return the application to the waiting list.

Applicants are admitted to their classes under the following conditions:

1. Registration fees must be paid within one week of acceptance. If payment is not completed, acceptance will be retracted.

If the assessment indicates Moderate to severe needs and the school is unable to deliver the necessary support, the parents will be notified and requested to withdraw the student with immediate effect.
