Admission Policy

Applicants for admission to Al-Sahafa International School are to apply to our school by sending a request to this email: info@alsahafaschool.edu.sa, show up in person, or call the school for information: (011) 2866631 or (011) 2866632.

There are no academic requirements for acceptance into Kindergarten (3 to 5 years of age). Prospective students at these levels are interviewed; they must be toilet-trained and able to speak and follow simple instructions.

All other prospective students take entrance tests in Math and English. These tests help to determine if the students have attained the minimum expected standard for each subject. The school then makes final placement decisions but can resort to the various strategies at its disposal to help bring a student to the required level.
