Admissions to
Woodbridge School
Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions you can make as a parent, or a student. In addition to the information you’ll find here, you may have further questions or want to know more details. Our dedicated Admissions Team are happy to respond to all enquiries, and can guide you through the application process.
Initial enquiry
The first stage of the Admissions process for day and boarding students is to get in contact with our team by telephone, email or via our online enquiry form. This allows you to tell us a little information about you and your child ahead of visiting Woodbridge School.
We will then organise with you the best way for you to experience our School – whether that be a private tour or at one of our upcoming Open Events.
Applying for a place
Once you have visited the School, and would like to apply for a place, you are welcome to formally apply.
There is a non-refundable registration fee for each application of £100 for both day and boarding students. At this stage, please also make us aware of any individual needs for your child, and if you intend to apply for a bursary or scholarship.
