Admission Details
Most boys join the Falkner House Reception class in the September following their fourth birthday. During the year before entry, boys (including those in the Falkner House Nursery at Brechin Place) are called for an assessment. From time to time vacancies occur throughout the school and the school welcomes enquiries from parents who would like their son to be considered for an ‘occasional’ place.
While the school supports a sibling policy, a sibling place is not always guaranteed. The school recommends that parents also register at a variety of schools as well as Falkner House.
7+ and 8+
A small number of places may become available for boys wishing to join Falkner House in Years 3 or 4. In the Spring term, before entry in September, boys are called for an assessment and interview and have the opportunity to spend time with the relevant class.
