The Admissions process is designed such a way that you have the opportunity to see what Somerset House is all about. Ideally, we would like to have the opportunity to show you around the school and discuss your child’s possible enrolment in person but we are also able to complete the process virtually. No-obligation visiting opportunities for your child are also possible, depending on your child’s age.
NO NEED TO WAIT FOR AN OPEN DAY…
At Somerset House, we have always believed that choosing a school is a deeply personal decision – one best made through genuine connection rather than polished presentation.
For this reason, we prefer to engage with prospective families one-on-one, through personal tours and authentic conversations. Instead of inviting you to an Open Day, we welcome you into the rhythm of a normal school day. You will see real lessons unfolding, children fully engaged in learning, teachers interacting naturally, and the campus alive with its everyday energy.
There are no rehearsed speeches or carefully curated moments – just the honest, vibrant life of the school as it truly is.
We have found that this approach allows families to experience the culture, atmosphere, and relationships that define Somerset House far more meaningfully. It creates space for thoughtful questions, individual discussion, and a deeper understanding of what matters most to you and your child.
Our aim is not simply to showcase facilities, but to offer a genuine sense of belonging – so that when you leave, you are not just informed, but confident in what you have seen and felt.
We look forward to welcoming you in this way.
