Entry depends on age and availability
Whitgift invites applications for boys and provides separate information for its main entry points and international applicants. Admissions considers academic potential and wider contributions to school life. Families with an unusual transfer date can discuss flexibility with the team. Visit the campus and obtain the relevant assessment process before paying the entrance examination fee.

Classroom help and personal guidance
The school describes individual support alongside academic challenge, with learning built around pupils’ different needs. The fee schedule includes classroom tuition and support, most books and stationery, games and school societies. This does not define specialist provision for every learning need: share reports and assessments with admissions and confirm any limits before accepting a place.

A 45-acre campus and boarding community
The admissions page describes a 45-acre campus and a boarding community welcoming boys from the UK and overseas. A visit can help distinguish the day-school routine from weekly or full boarding. Ask to see the accommodation and activity spaces used by the intended age group, and check travel arrangements for weekends and holidays.
