Waiting List
In the event of capacity enrolment at a class level, the Admissions Office will maintain a wait pool. Applicants in the wait pool will be considered for admission as openings become available. If and when space is available in a class, the parents will be advised immediately and asked to confirm that they still wish their child to enter KBK. Parents confirming their continued interest in having their child attend KBK will be required to pay the current tuition and fees immediately once the space is confirmed.
Other Important Application Information
PLEASE NOTE: Once a place is offered, the student must be enrolled and tuition paid to hold the place for immediate or later entry within the school’s calendar year. A family cannot defer a student’s entry for the next school year without reapplying and submitting the necessary documentation and application fee.
Class placement to Kay-Billie-Klaer is a collective decision by the Admissions Office after we have reviewed all requested application documents. Preliminary in this placement are three factors: how well the child does on the test, the age of the child, and a determination that the child and parent can complement the class and learning environment we have in the school and enhance the multicultural diversity and academic and behavioural discipline of Kay-Billie-Klaer.
