Admissions may take place at any time during the year. 

1. Children attend an Admissions Appointment with their parents. This is an opportunity to find out more about the child, how and what they like to learn, and inform them about what we do. Children are free to ask any questions they wish. It is also an opportunity for parents to ask further questions and deal with administrative matters.
2. Parents fill in the Registration Form and we organise a “try it and see” try-out period which can last from 3 to 6 weeks. This gives each child enough time to then make an informed decision as to whether the community is the right place for them. 
3. Once the trial is over, the child, parents, and HBLC decide together whether the child can become a member of the learning community. The vast majority of trials result in the child joining us. It is important that the steps are gradual, allowing the child to feel their way through the admissions process.
