Begin Your Journey
While our main intake of new girls is in September, we welcome applications throughout the year, and pupils may start at any point during the academic year, providing there is availability.
Our Admissions Manager, Julia Horton, will answer your questions, explain why Hanford is such a unique and nurturing environment so you can make an informed choice about your daughter’s educational journey.

Next Steps
We recommend starting the admissions process at least one year in advance of your daughter’s anticipated start at Hanford; however, we recognise this may not always be possible and can be flexible about timelines where necessary.
Do get in touch with us so we can answer any questions you may have, find out as much as possible about your daughter, her interests and education to this point. We can discuss the appropriate year group for your daughter, explain our boarding and day options, including Hanford Core or Hanford Plus and possible starting dates.
Please do call, email or complete an Enquiry form so we can get the ball rolling. You may also find this Key Information Booklet a useful resource.
