Children are put
in a class by their date of birth. The cut off date
in all Shell Schools is August 31st. In Panaga School there is often more than one class for
an age group. A child can start in the
Nursery at the beginning of the term that they
have their third birthday. There are 3 admission
dates during a school year (September to July) when
a child may enter the
Nursery. |

The Shell
School’s admission policy is strongly adhered to and
children are placed, upon arrival at the school, in
the year group that is appropriate to their age. This may not correspond to all children’s previous
school experience and class placement. However,
careful consideration is given to children’s prior
experience, particularly in the lower end of the
school, and children can be moved to a lower class
if needed, after assessments and consultation with
the Principal and Heads of Streams. |

|
Children of
BSP expatriate employees
are eligible for immediate entry into the
school upon arrival in Brunei providing the children
are within the primary school ages as stated for
admission. We also have school places available for
the children of
contract staff but
a place is not automatic or guaranteed, due to
fluctuating numbers. |
| |
|
Parents are asked to inform the school prior to
admission of any special needs requiring learning
support. Reports related to assessments made by an
Educational Psychologist or any other specialist
concerned with child development should be submitted
upon application. The school can provide learning
support for children with a low level of special
educational need through an SEN Teacher.
However, Panaga is a mainstream school and has no
Special Education Unit. Failure to disclose any
relevant additional information could result in a
place in school being withdrawn.
Withdrawal of a place may occur if the school feels
it cannot satisfy a child's educational needs. |
