The School, which is sponsored by the British Embassy, operates under a mandate to provide education for British passport holders. The key factors regarding admission to the School are as follows:

• Children with a full British passport and DESS siblings will be given priority for placements or priority on any wait-lists when placements are not available.
• Children must be able to communicate in English at a level appropriate to their age and development. This applies to all children, including full British passport holders, or siblings of children already at the School.
• Children of other nationalities may be offered places in the School when there are places available, and they meet the requirements of the Entrance Assessment.
• All children will be assessed by a member of the academic staff prior to the final confirmation of a placement at the school. The style of assessment will vary according the child's age, educational history (i.e. the curriculum followed at previous schools) and the access by DESS to previous, authenticated reports and assessment results.
• Children of any nationality will not be admitted if they have severe learning and/or behavioural difficulties and the School is unable to offer an appropriate curriculum, or facilities.
