Flying the nest
Choosing a senior school can seem a daunting and complicated process, but we’ve supported thousands of families to take the next step. From starting the search through to preparation and support with Pre-Tests, Common Entrance and Scholarships, the Dragon offers beginning-to-end support with finding the right senior school to fit your child.
If your Dragon is joining us in Year 4, you will be invited to events to help guide you through the process of choosing the next step in your child’s educational journey. These events range from information evenings and small senior school forums to a Future Schools Fair with over 40 schools represented. You will be allocated a Future Schools Advisor to support you throughout the process.
If your Dragon joins us later than Year 4, we will ask you to update us on your thoughts and actions so far to allow us to help you with the next stage. The Future Schools process takes a partnership approach, so we invite you to keep us up to date on your thoughts and registrations so that we can offer the most suitable pre-test preparation and practice interviews where appropriate.
We’re here to help, and very happy to do so.

Discover Quest

Some of the activities have direct academic benefits, others are focused on building friendships and life skills.
