Siblings (non JPS) of students in Jumeirah College will take the test on the afternoon of Thursday 10 January 2013 at Jumeirah College. All other applicants will take the test on Saturday 12 January 2013 at Jumeirah College. Timings to be advised.
2. Following the test results and the receipt of projected Key Stage 2 levels for each student, places will be offered in the following order of priority:
a) Year 6 student at Jumeirah Primary School at time of application
b) A sibling of a student already attending the College
c) Son/daughter of a member of staff at the College or GEMS employee
d) Year 6 students from other schools
3. Should the number of applications from the first three criteria exceed the number of places available, then students will be ranked and offered a place in order of test result and KS2 projected levels. All other applicants will be ranked subsequently and places will be offered to those candidates when numbers allow.
4. Where a child has a particular learning need that would affect their ability to access the curriculum unsupported, the capacity of both the College and Support for Learning Department will be the deciding factor whether a place at the College will be offered following interview and consultation with the home Primary School.
