How to Apply

Admissions

We’re delighted that you are considering SPCS for your child. The links on this page set out the application process but please do call our Registrar Emma Cole if you have any questions, on 020 7248 5156, or email admissions@spcs.london.sch.uk.

Entry Points

Early applications are recommended as we have waiting lists in most year groups.

The main entry point into the school for day pupils is 4+ (Reception).

The Registrar can advise on occasional places at other entry points.

4+ – Entry into Reception

Children can be registered from birth and are assessed informally for entry to Reception in the Pre-Prep department in January of the year of entry. We invite registered children to join us for a one hour play-based session, which we aim to make as fun as possible for the children.

Before the assessment children are sent a social story all about St. Paul’s Cathedral School and a video tour so that they know a little bit about where they are going.

When we assess we are considering the extent to which children will benefit from SPCS’s lively and fast-paced curriculum. We look to see curious learners who are able to explore their surroundings, engage and cooperate with others. We also ask for a report from your child’s current nursery.

Subject to their attaining the appropriate academic standard, SPCS Pre-prep pupils progress at the age of seven to our Prep School.

Chorister Admissions

Choristers – boys and girls – are admitted as Probationers to the Cathedral Choir from the age of seven as boarders into Martin Kiddle and Maria Hackett Houses. They may have attended the Pre-Prep department of St Paul’s Cathedral School or come from another school.

To be admitted as a Chorister, your child must pass the Cathedral Music Department’s Voice Trial and also meet the school’s standard admission requirements. In addition to the process set out for Day Pupils by age above, suitability for boarding and the rigorous Chorister programme is considered.

The day element of Choristers’ fees is paid by the Cathedral; means tested support is available to support with boarding fees.
