Policy for Admission to the Junior School

For all boys who join the School in Reception, transfer from Year 2 (Lovell House) to Year 3 (Nottingham High Junior School) is automatic, unless in the opinion of the Head your son has not attained a sufficiently high standard of work or conduct to enable him to benefit from continuing his education at the School. At the end of Year 1, his place in the Junior School will be confirmed to you in writing.

However, all boys are required to sit the Junior School entrance exam for benchmarking purposes.

Very rarely, the School may feel that it is not in your son's best interests to proceed to the Junior School, in which case you will be given not less than one term's notice. Throughout his time at Lovell House his progress will be closely monitored and any concerns immediately communicated to you, such that it will generally be possible to reach a final decision with you by the end of Year 1.
