Welcome to Admissions at Wellow House

When you’re choosing a school it’s important it’s the right fit for everyone, so a personal tour or Wellow House Open Day Open Event is a great way for families to get to meet our Headmaster and staff, find out more about Wellow House life and the fantastic facilities we have here, before applying to the school.

We are here to hold your hand through the admissions process and encourage our parents to share any concerns they may have; however trivial they may think they are. To register your interest in visiting our school, please click here to request a visit.

Pre-Preparatory Department
Children may join the Pre-Prep from their third birthday onwards to Year 2. Places are limited and are allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis so we recommend registering your child’s place as early as possible. To apply, please complete the application form below or to visit us and look around, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Preparatory Department
Children from the Pre-Prep will normally pass into the Prep Department automatically at Year 3 (age 7). In addition to this, we do have new pupils join the school into various year groups from Year 3 onwards. The main intake is from September but children may be admitted part way through the academic year if places are available. Wellow is not academically selective but children entering the Prep department will be assessed to allow them to be placed into the correct set.

Senior Department
Children from the Prep Department will normally pass into the Senior Department automatically at Year 7 (age 11). In addition to this, we do have new pupils join the school into various year groups from Year 7 onwards. The main intake is from September but children may be admitted part way through the academic year if places are available.
