Early Years: Girls may join Nursery from their third birthday. Prior to the offer of a place, your daughter will be invited to an informal play session (lasting about one hour) in the Early Years Hub where they will assess her potential to be happy at Norwich High School for Girls.
Prep School: At 4+, assessment is based on verbal and practical activities undertaken with the Head of the Prep School and at 7+, your daughter will spend a full day attending lessons and doing assessments in English, Mathematics and Reasoning.
Senior School: At 11+, 13+ and 14+, your daughter will sit an entrance assessment in English, Mathematics and Reasoning in the early spring, prior to possible entry. All girls will be interviewed by the Head, who likes to meet each girl in person. A report will also be requested from your daughter’s current school.
Sixth Form: They admit girls directly to the Sixth Form on the basis of a minimum of six grade 6Bs at GCSE, an interview and a report from their current school. Applicants are invited for an interview, in the Autumn Term, and an offer of a place is conditional on GCSE exam results. Interviews can be held at other times if necessary. New girls are very welcome to visit Sixth Form, to tour state-of-the-art centre, and speak to key members of staff and students.
