Webber Academy prepares students "to thrive in university and beyond". As such, when screening applicants, the school is seeking children who are demonstrating levels of potential, performance, and character that likely match this end. Experience has shown that students who do not meet certain standards in these areas are not successful at our school, even though there may have been past successes in other less intense learning environments.
While a student’s character tends to be judged more subjectively (through teacher references, visits to our school, etc.), Webber Academy does use a variety of objective means to assess the potential and current performance of a student. The following is information on admissions tests administered to our prospective applicants for entrance into Grades Seven to Twelve. Webber Academy is a member of the Secondary School Admission Test Board (SSATB), and uses testing results from the SSAT (Secondary School Admission Test) for the purposes of admission.
