Taking into account the current admissions policy of the ESM, an enrollment of Category III pupils in all language sections is only possible for siblings and/or children from other European schools in classes with fewer than 24 pupils.
Category III children who are not siblings or come from other European schools can only be enrolled in the smaller language sections provided that the limit of 9 pupils has not been reached.
Enrolment of Category III children is only possible if the conditions outlined in the admission criteria are being met.
