13+ Admissions Next Steps

We advise families to start the initial process when their child is in Year 4 or 5. There are then three important steps to be negotiated: 

  • A private visit with interviews at Stowe or by exception remotely for overseas pupils 

  • Success in the ISEB Common Pre-Tests (or UKiset for whom English is not their first language) 

  • A satisfactory reference or report from the candidate’s current school 

To see a summary of the dates that each of these requirements should ideally be fullfilled, please click on the relevant Next Steps Guide link below, for the year of entry and type of place that you are looking for.
