ADMISSIONS
Yonder International admits students who demonstrate readiness for an international school environment. Age and grade placement follow international and local standards. Consideration is given to the child’s academic background, language proficiency, and developmental readiness.
Admissions Consultation
A one-on-one consultation between the family and either the School Director or School Counselor is a required part of the admissions process.
The purpose of this consultation is to:
-
Share the school’s mission, philosophy, and expectations.
-
Understand the child’s educational background and learning needs.
-
Provide parents with information on school policies and procedures.
Placement Decisions
Placement is determined based on a combination of age, prior schooling, assessment results, and consultation outcomes. Final admissions and placement decisions are approved by the School Director. Families are notified in writing of the admissions decision
Student
Assessments
Depending on the child’s age and background, the school may require additional assessments, including:
-
Student Interview – to gauge social readiness and communication.
-
English Language Assessment – to determine the student’s ability to participate in English-based instruction
-
Cognitive Readiness Evaluation – to assess developmental preparedness
Results of these assessments are used for placement and to ensure the school can meet the student’s needs
