Dear Parent or Guardian
A very warm welcome to the School admissions section of our website. Thank you for your interest in our wonderful Independent School in Bookham. If you are enquiring about a Nursery, or Prep School for mid-year entry, in the future, or at the start of the academic year, you are in the right place.
From September 2026, senior girls will be educated at the combined Senior School at the St Teresa’s site.

Open Mornings and Experience Days
We hold two School Open Mornings every year which also accommodate the Nursery or Kindergarten as well as the Prep School; in the Autumn term in October and in the Spring term in March.
You can sign up to any of these events on our Visit Us page or you can choose to visit us virtually from the comfort of your own home by accessing our Virtual Open Day– many families choose to do both. The Virtual Open Day features a 360 degree interactive Virtual Tour which you can browse by yourself. There is also an interactive site map, photo gallery and welcome messages from our Headteacher, staff and pupils.
We host Experience Day’s for Reception and Year 3 in November (for entry the following September). This is free to attend. Please register via the Visit Us page.
Following your initial visit, we ask you to progress your application in accordance with our admissions process.
Nursery applications follow a different process to the Prep Schools and please contact our admissions team directly for a Nursery enquiry.
Prep School and Senior School Admissions
For admissions to the Prep School, this involves access to your child’s latest school report, a meeting with our Headteacher or Head of Prep, an age-appropriate online digital assessment and a confidential reference from your child’s current school. This process may vary in that we offer Experience Days Year 3 entry, and Discovery Afternoons for Reception Class. For applications for Year 3 we may also conduct interviews. You can find out more about our admissions process for the Prep School here.
From September 2026, senior girls will be educated at the combined Senior School at the St Teresa’s site.
Jane Baynes and our Admissions team are your disposal to talk you through the process for your year group and point of entry, on 01372 457077 or via email: admissions@manorhouseschool.org
