How to apply

Starting your journey at LWC

We believe passionately in a rounded education. That is why our admissions process is designed to give children the chance to show their true potential, wherever their strengths may lie. 

 

Our assessments appeal to the intellectually curious and those prepared to ‘have a go’. They help us identify the young people most likely to thrive here: those who will make the most of all that LWC offers and contribute to the life and spirit of our community.

 

We know that choosing a school is a significant decision for any family, and our Admissions team is here to make the experience as clear, personal and supportive as possible.

 

Each year, we welcome around 60 children into Bramley House in Year 7 (1st Form) and 65 into the Senior School in Year 9 (3rd Form). In addition, we welcome applications for Year 8 and Year 10 entry alongside a significant cohort joining for the Sixth Form years.

 

You can explore each of our entry points below. When you are ready to take the next step, you can register here.
