Criteria & Entry Ages

To ensure our students can thrive in our environment and provide proper placement of care, Maplewood Academy will provide assessments test to gauge the children level of understanding.

Our basic requirements for admission include the following:

Assessment Test

Assessment tests help us determine whether a student is likely to be a good candidate for our school. The subject assessments depend largely on the student’s age and grade.

Preschool Assessments

In order to apply for preschool applications, our students are asked to complete a basic English and Math assessment.

Primary School Assessments

For applicants aged between Year 1 and Year 9, students must complete three assessments: English, Math, and Science.

Lower Secondary Assessments

For applicants in Year 10 or Year 11, assessments come down to the school’s discretion but cover topics such as English, Math, Science, and Humanities (for example, accounting, economies, etc.).

Age of Entry

We accept applications for new students throughout the year; however, the age of entry will influence which year your child is entered into and the assessments they have to complete.
