Admissions
Webber Academy is pleased to offer a friendly and informative admissions procedure for interested students and parents.
A series of Information Evenings are held throughout the school year and commence at 7:00 p.m. at our campus. The sessions provide an opportunity for interested families to meet with the Webber Academy administration team and tour the campus.
The main goal of Webber Academy is to prepare students for educational opportunities in high-calibre post-secondary institutions, as well as for leadership roles in greater society. To that end, the objective when considering a student’s application is to determine whether or not the individual possesses the academic potential and personal dynamics to meet these expectations. All students entering Webber Academy from Grade 1 on receive aptitude and achievement testing. During the admissions process, it is our aim to ensure all new students will not only rise to the academic challenges of our school, but also flourish and experience success and happiness in our programme.
In determining a candidate’s admissibility, the Director of Admissions will consider a student’s past academic record, citizenship qualities and extra-curricular interests. A classroom visit, entrance exam and personal interviews with both the students and the parents are required. Webber Academy reserves the right to contact a candidate’s current school to help us reach a complete assessment.
Approximately 60% of the applicants have been accepted although the quality of recent applicants is increasing. Generally, applicants have to receive test scores in the 75th percentile or better. The objective is to select the best candidates possible. As siblings of existing students apply there is a preference given to them over other candidates as long as they meet the entrance requirements.
