Why ISAC Direct?
ISAC Direct offers a unique opportunity to streamline the admissions process to UK independent schools. Selecting and applying to the right school for your child has never been easier.
We simplify the admissions process for you by offering:
A single application form
If you apply directly to several schools, you would usually be required to complete a separate application form for each school.
By applying through ISAC Direct you will only need to complete a single application form which will be submitted to the schools* you choose to shortlist.
Once a place at a school has been accepted, there will be additional forms to complete and we will assistyou with this.
*this applies to schools listed on our portal only
A single registration fee
If you apply directly to several schools, you will be required to pay a registration fee to each school.
No matter how many schools* you apply to, using ISAC Direct means you pay only one registration fee.

A single set of written exams
Many independent schools ask your child to sit their own entrance exams as part of the admissions process. Thus the more schools you apply to, the more exams your child has to sit.
Through ISAC Direct, no matter how many schools * you apply to, your child will only need to sit one set of exams which will be accepted by all the schools on our portal.
However, there are some schools which use Common Entrance Exams whilst some non-selective schools do not require applicants to sit any formal entrance exams at all. In either of these cases, ISAC Direct will again assist your child with whichever process is necessary.

In addition, you will have DIRECT access to the member schools, enabling you to address your questions to them and access the latest information regarding scholarships etc.
