Boarding Application

All Boarding applications are direct to RSD. You may apply online for a place at RSD Boarding or, alternatively, download an application form and then send this to RSD.

Please note that applications for admission into the Boarding Department should be accompanied by a pupil’s two most recent school reports (preferably reports covering a whole academic year). If the report for the current academic year is not yet available, you may submit a term report or a letter of recommendation from your current Headteacher.

For applicants whose first language is not English, evidence of English may be requested via a Skype interview and/or by written examination. For pupils applying for A Level courses, evidence of GCSE English or IELTS 6.0 or higher, or equivalent should be submitted with the application.

RSD is usually very over-subscribed for Boarding applications and it is important therefore to apply early to secure a place. Most places are allocated by the RSD Admissions Committee in November for starting school the following September so you should aim to apply about a year in advance.
