Admission Process

Eligibility
Admission in all cases depends on the student, first being able to meet The Galaxy Education System academic standards and second, that we are able to meet any special needs of the student (including physical handicaps, learning disabilities, and development of English-language skills).

A birth certificate and last two years’report cards from the previous school are required from all applicants. Aletter of reference from the forwarding school is also preferred.

Capacity
Ifenrollment levels are well below capacity, the school may choose to admit students who would not normally be eligible. This admission does not automatically extend similar rights to siblings.

Procedure
Each May, the Managing Trustee, after receiving a recommendation of the school administration, will determine how many students can be accommodated in each class the following year.

English Language Proficiency for admissionto and continuation at TGES
To ensure that TGES students can satisfy the academic requirements and participate to the fullest extent possible in school life, TGES has established minimum levels of English and Mathematics proficiency for students in grade 8 and above. New or continuing students at TGES must attain appropriate levels of English and Mathematics proficiency to enter or continue at the beginning of the school year.

In some cases a decision concerning an applicant may be made before the personal interview or testing, based on the applicant's educational background as reflected in the application, school records, English and Mathematics grades and letter of recommendation. The school will take into account the academic record of a continuing student as well as the student's English language and Mathematics proficiency when considering placement in the next grade level.
