This is quite a broad and general question that requires more details. The best way is to either attend one of our Open Days where we explain the differences between them and offer tours in both schools. Or you will need to set appointments with members of our educational managers to get a better understanding.

What if the online application does not work and I cannot come to the school?
Please make sure that you are using Chrome or Firefox browsers and the experience is better on a laptop or desktop than a mobile. Also make sure you have all the required fields filled. If any problem persists, kindly email support@skolconnect.com
If I do not have the school report, will that affect my acceptance at El Alsson?
No it will not. You need to have it submitted upon acceptance.
What documents do I need to apply?
You need 4 recent passport size photos for your child, an original birth certificate, photocopies of both parents’ ids and if available, the most recent nursery or school report.
Do I have to come to the Open Day or can I come any day to apply?
If you wish to take a tour of the school and attend a presentation about the British and American schools, the Open Day is a must. If not, then yes you can apply online any day with no tour.
