Admissions Process Lower School

Register

Reception places are allocated from December, two years prior to entry, meaning offers are typically made 21 months before your son starts school.

You may register your son for 4+ entry at any time from birth. A non-refundable registration fee of £120 applies.

Visit Us

We warmly invite families to get to know Rokeby through our events:

  • Open Morning: Saturday, 4th October
  • Coffee Mornings: Held regularly throughout the year

These events offer a wonderful opportunity to explore our school, meet our dedicated staff, and learn more about our curriculum and facilities. Choosing the right school is a significant decision, and visiting us is the best way to get a genuine feel for life at Rokeby.

Offer Process

Starting in December 2025, places will be allocated on a first-come first-served basis.  Therefore, provided a place is available, you will receive an offer letter upon registration.

 As soon as all places are filled, a waiting list will be created.

Next Steps

Once an offer is made, families will have six weeks to accept and pay a non-refundable deposit of £2,500 to secure your son’s place.  The deposit is retained until the end of Year 8 or the end of the pupil’s final term at Rokeby School, providing a term’s notice is given.

Reception Admissions & Timeline

We recognise this is an important stage for boys and their families ahead of joining Rokeby. To support you through this journey, we have outlined a clear admissions timeline along with the key transition events designed to ensure a smooth and happy start to life at Rokeby. You can find the full timeline HERE.

Occasional Places

We maintain small waiting lists for occasional places that may become available at other entry points throughout the school.

Each candidate is assessed in relation to his age, with younger boys typically taking part in a more informal assessment process.
