Admissions Process
We offer admissions at BJAB on a rolling basis. Please contact us to discuss mid-year entry. Our Admissions Officer is available to walk you through each step of our admissions process.
1. Tour & Interview
The admissions process begins with a tour of the school and interview with Mr Retter, Headteacher. Families are invited to view our facilities and speak with Mr Retter about our educational offering.
2. Gaining admission
Following the interview, a place at BJAB may be offered. In some cases, prospective pupils may be required to undergo entrance assessments. Pupils may also have the opportunity spend a ‘trial day’ with us in their future class.
3. Registration and payment
In order to reserve a place at BJAB, parents should submit the following:
The school will issue invoices according to the current Schedule of Fees. The first invoice is for the Registration Fee (500€) and Deposit (500€). Space is secured upon payment of this initial invoice. The Registration Fee and Deposit are non-refundable if a place is not taken up within the designated period. Invoices for school fees follow. Our administrative team is available to issue attendance certificates for employers.
