Taster Days are a great opportunity for prospective pupils to experience Badminton first hand, meet with teachers and fellow students and get a real feel for the school's culture and community. Although our official Taster Days for this year have now taken place, prospective pupils are very welcome to arrange a bespoke Taster Day using the booking form below.
Candidates take examinations in English and Mathematics as well as a Cognitive Ability Test. Each girl will also have an interview with a senior member of staff. In addition, references are obtained from the girls’ current school.
Overseas applicants are invited to sit Badminton assessment exams at selected test centres around the world. We have limited boarding spaces available in Years 9 & 10 for September 2026 and encourage you to contact our Admissions Team should you be interested in a late application: email Admissions. If overseas candidates have met the initial assessment criteria after the assessments, they will be invited for an interview with a senior member of staff via video conference.
