Admissions

Cambridge Arts and Sciences (CATS and CSVPA)'s admissions process is inclusive but structured, with potential, English level, course fit and practical enrolment steps all clearly part of the process. The process is likely to focus on current attainment, English level, subject fit and whether the student can cope with a highly goal-oriented environment.

How the school describes itself

  • Cambridge Arts and Sciences (CATS and CSVPA) is global, specialist and consciously designed around next-step outcomes. The school is global, focused and consciously outcomes driven.

Parents like

  • A persuasive option for ambitious international students who want either a strong academic route through CATS or a more specialist creative pathway through CSVPA. It will suit ambitious students who want momentum, structure and a clearly articulated next step.

Inspection snapshot

Recent ISI reporting in 2025 matters here because Cambridge Arts and Sciences is effectively a combination of two specialist international schools operating under one roof. For internationally facing schools, that public evidence matters because families are often making high-stakes moves.
