Admissions
We aim to make our admissions process as smooth as possible for our prospective families.
Our friendly and experienced Admissions Team are always happy to answer your questions, explain our entrance procedures or arrange a visit. While our website and school video will give you a flavour of what Stonar has to offer, there is no substitute for a visit. We welcome individual tours throughout the week, where you will meet the Headmaster and other members of staff, as well as exploring our site and its facilities.
