Selecting the right school that aligns with your child’s unique personality, interests, and potential is an important decision for any parent. At Kingsmead College, we place the individual needs of each student as our top priority and are committed to providing you with all the information you need to make an informed choice.
Please note there is a non-refundable application fee of R500.
Complete our online application forms to apply for entry into the Pre-school, Junior, or Senior School.
While vacancies in all grades can occur throughout the year, all applications are placed on a waitlist. Should an opening in the appropriate grade become available, we will reach out to schedule an interview with the relevant School Head or Deputy, where you’ll have the opportunity to ask any questions. Please note that submitting an application form does not guarantee entry to the school.
Appropriate age per grade:
- Grade 000: 3 turning 4

Your application will not be saved until it has been fully processed. Before starting the application form, please have the following documents ready:
- Copy of child’s birth certificate

After submission, you will receive an acknowledgement email. For Grades 1 to 12, Admission is based on personal interviews, not entrance exams, conducted by the Head of School or a representative. Admission decisions are at the discretion of the Head of of the Junior or Senior Schools, focusing on the best interests of the student and community.
The application does not guarantee admission. The waitlist is based on the application date, with consideration given to siblings, daughters of alumnae, and children of staff. A form and deposit must be submitted upon confirmation to secure the spot. Once a place is offered, you will need to review, accept, and sign the Conditions of Admission and Code of Conduct.
