Admissions Process
Thank you for considering Sandford Park School for your family. Choosing the right school for your son/daughter is one of the most important decisions you will make on their behalf. At Sandford Park, we want to be informative and assist you with your decision. Sandford Park School’s admissions policy complies with ‘The Education (Admission to Schools) Act 2018’.
All applications will be processed in accordance with our Admissions Policy.
There are two processes: one concerns entry to 1st Year and the other is for applications for 2nd Year to 6th Year.
First Year
You can submit an Expression of Interest at any point prior to the commencement of the formal admission process. Our Admissions Notice outlining application submission dates will be published annually in October on the website.
Applications for First Year 2026
If you wish to apply for Form 1 2026, please complete and return the above form with a copy of your child(ren)’s birth certificate and their passport (if he/she is non-EU). Please can you make the payment of €100 through the Payzone link below using your child’s name as a reference.
If you have already applied via an application form (prior to February 2020) or through an expression of interest form, no further action is required at this stage.
