Visit Our Open Morning

Our Open Mornings are designed to be relaxed and informal, giving families time to explore the campus with a student guide. This allows you to gain a genuine insight into our culture and ethos with opportunities to chat with our staff along the way. The morning concludes with refreshments and the chance to meet and speak with our senior leadership team. register for our open morning

School Reports and References

We will ask you for your child’s most recent school report and any specialist diagnostic reports, if applicable. We will request an academic and personal reference directly from your child’s current school. Seaford College is a mainstream, non-elitist school that is academically non-selective. We use reports and references to ascertain not only whether your child will be able to access the curriculum, but whether they will be happy in the Seaford College environment.

Complete Pre-Testing

Students registered for entry to Year 9, (13+) will be asked to sit the ISEB Common Pre-Tests, in Year 6, at their current school. These are age standardised computer tests which measure ability and attainment and include Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning, Maths and English and are designed so that students cannot prepare for them. For more information, please visit the ISEB website.

Welcome to Seaford Senior

We appreciate that joining a new school can feel quite daunting. Our programme of induction events and opportunities to visit us at Seaford College is designed to help make the transition seamless and smooth. Our Senior School Year 9 Induction Day at the end of the Summer Term is a vital part of this process, students will meet their new peers, tutors and teachers and re-familiarise themselves with our campus. The day finishes with a BBQ for all students and their parents. At the start of the Autumn Term, Year 9 will take part in several bonding and team building experiences to help forge friendships and create memories.
