In keeping with the school's Mission, Vision, and Values, candidates will be eligible for admission at AISB based on:

• The student's potential to benefit from the educational services available
• The capacity of the school to meet the educational needs of the student
• The extent to which the student’s admission enables the school to maintain both diversity and appropriate strength of its English-language learning environment

Cultural diversity within an English-language learning environment is a defining characteristic of AISB. These are fundamental to our school's educational approach and goals.

The School accepts students with no previous experience of English from Early Childhood 3 to Grade 6. The school requires an English Language Assessment for Grade 6 students to ensure availability within our English as an Additional Language (EAL) support.

In Grades 7 through 12, candidates must demonstrate increasing levels of language proficiency, as determined by an English Language Assessment administered at the school.

At the discretion of the Director, an exception to the above age eligibility requirements may be made for a student relocating from an accredited school. The admissions decision would be based on a review of the student’s school records and an entrance assessment.

Students for other grade levels are placed in grades that most nearly approach the age for the student, taking into account his or her academic history as well. 

Students who follow a January to December school year will be enrolled in the grade level last completed. In all cases, the student’s likelihood of academic success will be a key factor in the decision-making process.

Students applying for admission to the High School program must demonstrate the potential to graduate before they reach 20 years of age.

AISB admits students with limited learning needs, problems or disabilities within the guidelines listed in its admissions policy. Students may spend up to 30% of their time within the learning support program.

Additional information is required to assess whether our school can meet the academic needs of the applicant. This includes evaluations, IEPs and school referrals.
