Visit the School
Parents, and students when possible, are encouraged to visit the campus for a daytime tour of our state-of-the-art facilities. As part of your visit, you will explore the phase your child is due to enter and experience a day in the life of a Reddam House Umhlanga student.
Completing your Application
Applications will be completed online via the parent application portal once you have visited the school; or had a virtual meeting; or if you are an existing parent. You will have received your username and password via email after completing the enquiry form. Please use this link to complete your application form.
Document Submission
Once relevant documentation has been uploaded to the application portal (applicant’s birth certificate, vaccination card, latest academic report, as well as copies of parent's or guardian's IDs) and the application fee is paid, the prospective student’s file is taken to the relevant Heads of school for review.
Interview
An interview with the relevant Head of School, or a designated staff member, is scheduled and, if the student is a potential boarder, a meet and greet with the Head of Boarding is arranged.
We offer a spend-a-day experience for Grade 1 – Grade 11 applicants. The student will spend a morning in their current grade to experience a day in the life of a Reddam House student.
Acceptance
The school will issue a Letter of Acceptance to successful applicants. A non-refundable placement fee is required and should be paid within 14 days to secure the student’s placement at the school. Parents are required to sign an agreement with the school and must submit financial, medical, and dietary information.
Stage 5 applicants are invited in for a Readiness Assessment. The purpose of the Readiness Assessment is to meet the child and assess them in a relaxed, informal, and friendly environment. The assessment is done at our Early Learning School.
Admission
Your child is admitted to Reddam House Umhlanga.
Induction
Phase Heads are informed of new students and place them in classes. Subject teachers are also notified and arrange academic catch-up sessions where needed. Phase Heads follow up with students over a fortnight to gauge how they are settling in.
