Application
Process

Applications for Dilworth School in 2024 are now closed.  Applications for 2025 will open in Term 4 - October 2023.

Each year there are places available for Year 7 and 8 students at the Junior Campus and Year 9 to Year 12 at the Senior Campus. 

Our admissions process covers several stages: 

Submitting the application 

  • The first step is completing an application form in the calendar year before the intended start date. 

You are strongly encouraged to submit your application as soon as possible, rather than waiting until near the closing date. 

No late applications are accepted. Applications will not be considered if submitted without the required documentation.

Admissions process 

You will receive an acknowledgement that your application has been received via email. 

If the application is to proceed past the initial stage, your nominated referees will be contacted in writing and your young man’s current school will be contacted. Once these reports are received, the application is reviewed again. 

If the application is to proceed to the next stage, both you and your young man will be invited to attend an initial interview with the Head of Admissions. These applications will then be considered for shortlisting. 

Shortlisted candidates will spend a day at the relevant Dilworth campus. The day will include a tour, academic testing and some team-building exercises. 

Shortly after, there will be a final interview for the candidate and applicant with a Trustee of the Dilworth Trust Board and the Headmaster or the Head of Campus.
