Admissions and Awards Policy
ADMISSIONS AND AWARDS POLICY Author: Guy Hopkins Lead: Deputy Head (Academic) Date: October 2019 Review Date: December 2021 1 ADMISSIONS AND AWARDS POLICY Westminster School is a School with ancient origins tracing back to 1179 when the Benedictine monks of Westminster Abbey were required by Pope Alexander III to provide a small charity School. The School owes its survival during the dissolution of the monasteries to the intervention of Henry VIII by statute to preserve the school, and to the Royal patronage conferred by his daughter Elizabeth I when she granted the College its Royal Charter in 1560. The School has throughout its history provided boarding and day education for boys, and to this day remains predominantly a boys’ school. However, girls were first formally admitted to the School in 1973 and today up to 70 girls are admitted at 16+ for A Level, both boarding and day. AIMS • To ensure compliance with the School’s charitable object as a Public School for Young Persons, Westminster provides independent education for young persons, namely boys between the ages of 13 and 18 and girls between the ages of 16 and 18. • To set selection criteria and procedures that are consistent with this charitable object and fair to applicants. • To identify applicants whose academic and other abilities appear to match the ethos and standards of the School and whose personal qualities suggest they have the potential to contribute sufficiently to the School community and benefit from the many opportunities that are offered here. RESPONSIBILITY FOR ADMISSIONS The Head Master is responsible for admissions and for the operation of this policy.
