Francoise Armstrong

Assistant Head (International), and Director of Boarding

Francoise Armstrong will conduct the Admissions Assessment which involves a video call with the child and their parents or guardians to establish whether we are the right fit for the child, and how best we can support their academic and extra-curricular growth – tailoring their learning experience to the child’s needs, skills and aspirations.

Jim Colston

Claremont Football Academy Director

If an international pupil is interested in being considered for the Claremont Football Academy, they will be instructed by Charlotte on how to submit video evidence and/or come for a physical trial session – with our experienced and wholly supportive Football Academy Director, Jim Colston.

When to join?

• International students join Claremont from age 11 with many staying with us until the Sixth Form. 
• Traditional entry points are in Year 7, 8, 9 and 10 (for GCSE) and Year 12 (for A Level).

Entry is normally in September but students will be considered for alternative start dates, subject to availability of spaces. If English is not their first language, students are expected to have a minimum level of English to cope with the demands of the curriculum.

We recommend the following level of English for essay-based A Level subjects: IELTS 6.
