Admissions
Applications
Due to the unique nature of our school, all children who are interested in enrolling have to submit an educational or counselling psychologist* assessment to ensure that they possess both the intellectual and emotional capacity required to benefit from our programme and are in need of an enriched educational environment. The report of the assessment is submitted together with a questionnaire completed by the parents.
Interested learners are also invited to visit for a few days (typically 3-5 days) to experience our learning environment firsthand. During the visit, learners might be required to complete some educational assessments, providing an indication of the level of their academic functioning. The parents are invited to a meeting with the Head.
Should the school, child and parents all be satisfied that Nebula might be a good fit, the family is invited to apply, and the paperwork completed.
