Throughout the admissions procedure King’s College policy is to find the correct placement for the pupil in question. To this end:
- All new pupils must undergo a selection process which varies according to their age.
- The selection process is to be carried out with the full knowledge and participation of the
Heads of the appropriate Schools and whenever necessary the Headmaster. - Following this selection process, admission to the school requires the approval of the
Heateacher. - The school reserves the right to refuse admission to candidates whom it considers will not
benefit from the educational programme offered by King’s College. - When allocating places priority is given to:
- pupils with brothers or sisters in the school
- pupils with one or both English-speaking parents
- children of former King’s College pupils
- families re-locating to Spain
However, their admission to the school is subject to the selection process for the appropriate age group and availability of places in the appropriate year group.
Documentation
Application for a place in the school may be made by completing and returning the official application form available on the website or from the school office. Before admission to the school can be granted, parents must sign the official application form by which they agree to abide by the school regulations. Parents must provide the following documents before their child commences his/her education at the school:
- A photocopy of either the birth certificate, the “Libro de Familia”, identity card or passport.
- Two passport size photographs.
- A medical certificate indicating that the child has no infectious or contagious diseases, specific illness or disability.
- Photocopies of certificates from previous schools attended, if any.
- Photocopies of school reports for the previous two years (where appropriate).
All the official academic documentation concerning the pupil’s education prior to joining King’s College is strictly the parents’ responsibility.
