More detailed information can also be found in other areas of our website, especially in the Prospectus. Other information can also be seen on this short video about the school:

The first step is for you to please fill in the online Application process at admissions.britishschool.g12.br – one for each child. With this, we will be able to identify the unit of your interest (Barra, Botafogo or Urca), and also the availability of places; and then set a visit to the unit. Please fill in an Application Form and contact us so we can arrange a visit, show you around and discuss how our school can assist your family.

The School’s main entry points are the Pre-Nursery and Nursery year groups (2 to 4 years old). Nevertheless, entry is possible in any year group, subject to availability of places and entry assessment. The school cannot guarantee places although priority is given to British and Commonwealth citizens, siblings of students already on roll, returning families and the children of former The British School, Rio de Janeiro students. However, the acceptance of a student is not automatic; each child must fulfil the entry criteria in his or her own right.

Detailed Information on Application Process

• Applications for both immediate and future entry are considered at any time throughout the year. A child will only be placed on the entry list once you complete application process online. Emails, phone calls and visit to the school do not qualify for entry on the list. Therefore, we suggest that you fill in the application soon as possible, even if you do not have the requested documents and photos. Documents and photos can be sent to us later on.
• There are not costs for submitting the Application.
• Sending in the application does not commit you to enrolling your child at our school.
• Sending in the application does not guarantee a place at our school, but the sooner you send it, the easier it is for us to work on the space availability and confirm it with you.
• Priority admissions are given to British and Commonwealth citizens, siblings of students already on roll, returning families and the children of former The British School, Rio de Janeiro students. However, the acceptance of a student is not automatic; each child must fulfil the entry criteria in his or her own right.
• The entry list operates strictly according to the date of receipt of the application, with priority given to children who fulfil the criteria stated in the admissions policy (as above).
