If you are considering entry in August 2013, the dates below will be useful in planning your application.
Tour for applicants
Tours of the School can be arranged at any time during term time. However, for entry in August 2013, you might find it might most useful to book an appointment during the Autumn of 2012. This will allow you to view the School, and ask any questions that you may have, in plenty of time before the deadline for applications.
The Autumn term runs until Wednesday 19 December. Please contact Admissions Co-ordinator, Mrs Catriona Leeper at
admissions@highschoolofdundee.org.uk to book an appointment.
Applications for L1
Candidates for L1 are asked to attend a School Readiness Assessment. This lasts around twenty minutes, and is carried out on a one-to-one basis by a senior member of staff. Individual appointments are scheduled from the beginning of January, and it is therefore advisable to submit your application before the end of the Autumn term. If the year group is oversubscribed, applications submitted after the deadline of Thursday 24 January 2013 may not be considered until the initial allocation of places is complete.
Applications for L2 - F1
Assessments for these year group will be held on Friday 25 January 2013. Applications should be submitted no later than 12pm on Thursday 24 January 2013, but earlier application is strongly advised. If any year groups are oversubscribed, applications submitted after the deadline of Thursday 24 January 2013 may not be considered until the initial allocation of places is complete.
Applications for F3-F6
Applicants for the upper years of the Senior School (F3 - F6) are generally assessed in late May or early June. Applications, together with subject choices, should ideally be submitted by Thursday 16 May 2013 to allow sufficient time to set a date for assessment before the end of session.
Applications for Bursary support
Bursary funding is available to applicants for entry to Form 1 and above, and is granted on the basis of academic ability and financial need. The deadline for Bursary applications for entry in 2013 is 12pm on Thursday 24 January 2013, and late applications will only be considered if sufficient funds remain. Please note that we are currently unable to offer Bursary support in the Junior School.
