Canadian School of Tashkent. Begin your child's
journey at CST.
Five steps, four to six weeks, one careful decision — together.
Five steps,
from enquiry to enrolment.
Enquire
Begin with a quick enquiry form, a phone call, or an email to our admissions office. We will send you a welcome pack — key information about CST, our curriculum, and what life on campus actually looks like for students at every stage.
Visit the campus
Attend an Open House or book a private tour. There is no substitute for walking the halls, meeting our teachers, and watching the school in motion. Most families know CST is right for them by the end of this visit.
Submit the application
Complete the formal application and upload the required documents: school transcripts, your child's passport or ID, two recent photographs, and any external assessments or reports relevant to grade placement.
Assessment & interview
Applicants for Grade 1 and above complete a placement assessment in English language and mathematics. The family meets with a member of the leadership team — a real conversation about goals, expectations, and fit, in both directions.
Offer & enrolment
Successful applicants receive a formal offer letter. Enrolment is confirmed on signing the agreement and paying the registration fee. Welcome to CST — the next chapter starts here.
A place at every
stage.
Lower PrimaryGrades K–2
Ages 5 – 8
Rolling admission. Placement based on age as of 1 September. No formal academic assessment — a friendly campus visit and an informal classroom observation is the next step.
Upper PrimaryGrades 3–5
Ages 8 – 11
Placement assessment in English and mathematics, family interview with our leadership team, and a WIDA proficiency check for incoming English language learners.
Middle SchoolGrades 6–9
Ages 11 – 15
Placement assessment in English, mathematics, and science, plus recent transcripts. Subject specialization begins here, so academic readiness is reviewed carefully at the family interview.
High SchoolGrades 10–12
Ages 15 – 18
Transcript review against Nova Scotia entry standards, subject placement interview, and a conversation about university aspirations. Seats are limited — early application strongly encouraged.
Admissions is a conversation.
Not a screening.
We are listening for fit.
What is your child like? What do they love? What has school been for them so far? Our admissions team is listening for who your child already is, not testing them against a checklist of who they should be.
No fixed timeline.
Some families decide quickly; others want a second visit or time to talk it through over the summer. There is no single application week and no urgency we will manufacture — the right pace is the pace your family needs.
The relationship starts now.
Even families who do not enrol this year often stay in touch. A school visit, a question by email, a conversation at an Open House — the relationship begins long before the first day of school, and it does not depend on a yes.
Choosing a school is not a verdict we deliver.
It is a decision we make together.
What you'll need to apply.
Document requirements vary by entry point — five lists covering Lower Primary through Grade 12 plus translations and originals guidance. Browse them all in the drawer.
Common questions.
Application deadlines, fees, language, transport, student support, and everything in between. Browse all fifteen in the drawer below — or if you can’t find what you’re looking for, send us a note and we’ll reply within one working day.
Joining the Nova Scotia
program.
Transferring into Grades 10–12 requires a careful credit review against Nova Scotia graduation requirements. Our Nova Scotia Programme Principal sits with each family to map the credits already earned, identify what remains, and build a personalized plan to the Nova Scotia High School Graduation Diploma.
It is the same diploma a student would earn in Halifax. The same standards, the same curriculum, the same university recognition. The four-step pathway in the drawer below explains exactly how it works.

Walk our halls,
meet our teachers.
Applications for 2026–2027 are open. Register for our Open House, book a private tour, or send us an enquiry — we respond within one working day, every day.
A guided tour of the campus, real conversations with our leadership team, and trial classes for your child in their year group. Each session lasts about two hours — long enough to know if CST feels like home.
Spaces are limited. Booking is required so we can place your child in the right trial class and prepare a tailored visit for your family.
