Key Admissions DatesWe would be delighted to welcome you to Bancroft’s Prep School. Whether you attend an Open Event or book a private tour, there’s no better way to experience the energy and warmth of our community.
After visiting Bancroft’s, if you would like to apply for a place, the first step is to register by completing our online application form.
This includes a non-refundable registration fee of £150. As part of the process, we will also contact your child’s current school for a personal reference.
We open registrations for the next academic year around Easter of the year before entry. For example, if you are seeking entry for September 2026, our admissions portal will open around Easter 2025.
To receive a reminder when the admissions portal opens please fill in this form.
Here at Bancroft’s Prep School we want to make all children feel welcome and at ease. Yes, we are a selective school but we believe that ‘academic’ must also mean warm and friendly, never cold.
The children visit us on two separate occasions in the January before their intended year of entry.
The Maths and Non-Verbal Reasoning parts of our entrance assessments take place in the Prep School in early January
