Private school admissions inquiry form template
This five-step private school inquiry form asks the child’s age, the parent’s top priority, the preferred mode of learning and when they hope to enroll, followed by the contact details. Clone it into your Growform account and add tour dates.
What the form asks, step by step
Parents researching schools want to register interest without committing. The four questions give an admissions officer enough to personalize the first reply.
-
Step 1: “What is the age of your child?”
Age bands point the inquiry to the right school division.
-
Step 2: “What is the most important aspect of a school for you?”
Academics, sports, arts or safety tells you what to highlight in your reply.
-
Step 3: “What is the preferred mode of learning for your child?”
In-person, online or hybrid shows which program the family is considering.
-
Step 4: “How soon are you looking to enroll your child?”
Families enrolling immediately should be offered a tour the same week.
-
Step 5: “How shall we contact you?”
Name, email and phone come last.
-
After submitting
Parents see a thank-you message, which an admissions team would rewrite to invite them to the next open day.
Who it’s for
Independent schools, private academies and online schools use this template as the first step of admissions. It sits before the formal private school application form and collects the child’s age, the family’s priorities and their timing. Admissions officers can then send a reply that mentions the program the family cares about. The full school admission form, with records and references, follows after a visit.
Why this structure converts
- The priority question lets parents say what matters to them, which makes the reply feel personal.
- Enrollment timing separates families ready for a tour from those planning for next year.
- The form asks nothing about fees or records, so parents can inquire without pressure.

Offer a tour on submit
Link to your tour or open day booking page on the thank-you screen so interested families can take the next step immediately.
-
Ask the entry grade
Replace the age bands with grade levels if your admissions team works by year group.
-
Add a sibling question
Ask whether any siblings attend the school, since many schools prioritize or discount sibling places.
