I live overseas. Can I apply?
In order to be eligible, an applicant can be accepted
from parents residing overseas for a child not yet
resident in the UK, as long as (i) the child is a UK National
or (ii) the parents intend to relocate and work in the
UK. In such circumstances, the school will consider
when the child is expected to be resident in the UK and
whether the parent’s application to enter the UK has
been or will be successful. In order that places offered
are not wasted because they cannot be taken up, the
school will not make an offer to any student resident
overseas unless they have a right of residence in the UK
or if it is clear beyond reasonable doubt that parent’s
application to enter and stay in the UK will be successful.
We require a copy of your EU identity card or other
proof of their right to reside in the UK (for example British/
EU Passport).
We will not accept Key Stage 4 students if
their parents intend to remain abroad.
I I live out of the catchment area. Will I get in?
Out of area places are very restricted; we can take
up to 10% of students outside the catchment area.
Applicants from outside the catchment area need
to show unusual merit throughout each stage of the
application process.
What proof is required to show I am in the
catchment area?
You will be asked to supply proof of your address at
some point in the application procedure (usually on
enrolment day). This can take the form of a utility bill,
tenancy agreement etc; the proof supplied cannot
be more than three months old. We do not accept
mobile phone bills. The bill should reflect the address
on your application form.
Please note if you are
unable to supply this information it could result in your
place being withdrawn.
Do I have to pay to attend The BRIT School?
There is no charge to attend The BRIT School, although
we do ask for a contribution from each student
attending the school when they start.
Do you offer accommodation locally?
We do have a list of local residents who offer rooms
to be let, but parents must take responsibility for the
accommodation being satisfactory and make sure
that the day-to-day support for the student is in place.
This applies to Post16 students only.
Please note The
BRIT School do not vet these landlords
