Admissions

Principles of RIA Admissions

  • RIA is an inclusive school. It is not selective based on academic ability.
  • RIA is committed to achieving the highest possible academic standards for each student.
  • RIA believes that personal well-being – a sense of security and happiness – is an intrinsic part of achieving high academic standards.
  • RIA believes that each child is unique and that their whole situation should be considered when deciding upon admission and acceptance
  • RIA will consider the balance of present or future class composition when deciding admission and acceptance
  • RIA is obliged by law to only accept students with expatriate ( non-Chinese) passports.
  • RIA will not discriminate against students based on their background, ethnicity, religion or the source of tuition fee payment.
  • RIA is aware that students who have had difficulties in other schools can often flourish once enrolled at RIA
  • RIA will make decisions regarding admissions in sufficient time for parents to consider other schools.

RIA is a small school with limited places that are in high demand. Decisions regarding enrolment are made at the sole discretion of the School Directors.
