Interview

Students who are being considered for an offer will be invited to attend an interview with a Senior Member of staff. The interview provides an opportunity for us to meet your son, to continue to assess his academic suitability and to hear more about his interests and activities beyond the classroom. The student interview is followed by a short meeting with parents/guardians with the same Senior Member of staff.

Whitgift's Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) provision is designed to support neurodiverse students as well as those with specific needs that require additional support, whatever their nature. Applicants with specific learning difficulties may be supported with exam concessions and access arrangements, and any requests will be assessed by our Head of Learning Support in line with JCQ guidelines. 

If your son receives Learning Support at his current school, we require additional documentation from you.  This will help us to determine what (if any) exam concessions we can provide for your son, and to ensure that Whitgift has all of the appropriate resources to meet your son's learning support needs.

Required Documents:

1. EHCP (Education Healthcare Plan) and/or specific written recommendations from a qualified professional (e.g. Educational Psychologist report/diagnosis from GP). This report must be dated within 3 years. 

2. A supporting letter from your son's current school confirming the current exam concessions your son receives.  If you are applying for Sixth Form, we require a JCQ Form 8 from your son's current school.

You will upload these documents as a part of the required documents section of the school application form.
