The Start of the Adventure
A Very Warm Welcome from the Head of Admissions,
Mrs Aurora Mercer
As a mother of three myself, I understand that choosing the right school for your family is a big decision, especially if you’re considering boarding for the first time. However, worry not, I am here to help, and I would be delighted to answer any questions that you have, no matter how big or small. So, whether you are making an initial enquiry, would like visit the school, or register your child for a place, I would love to hear from you.

On completion of an acceptance form and a little more paperwork, we welcome your child and the whole family to our family and their (and your) Elms Adventure begins.
The admissions process begins with an enquiry or visit. Families are then invited to register their child and arrange a taster day where appropriate.
Although we achieve excellent academic results, The Elms is a non-selective school. Admission is based on whether the school can meet a child’s needs and provide an environment in which they will flourish.
Children can join our Montessori-accredited Early Years provision from the age of three.
Yes. Subject to availability, children can join The Elms at various points throughout the academic year.
Yes. Taster days are an excellent opportunity for children to experience life at The Elms, meet classmates and enjoy lessons and activities.
Families can enjoy coffee and a chat with the Head, meet key members of staff, tour the facilities and see the school in action, learn about the curriculum and ask questions about both day and boarding life.
