Scholarships and Bursaries

Scholarships

Our Scholarship program is designed to celebrate and promote excellence at all ages; the application process here is intended to be simple and easy to complete.

As part of a formal process, we trust that you check the accuracy of your form before submission.

If you are applying for more than one Scholarship, this can be done on the form below.

Please note that Bursaries are separate to our scholarship programme. Applications from current pupils require a recommendation from their Head of Year or Head of Junior Department before submission.

Art Scholar. Please note that an art portfolio must accompany the Scholarship application, and applicants should be prepared to consider their work and experience with the Head of Art as part of their assessment on 28th November.

Music Scholar. We hold auditions on 14th November; pupils should expect to perform a piece, aural tests and sight reading tasks, as well as discuss their interests and achievements with the Director of Music.

Sport Scholar. We hold a selection afternoon that consider skills, fitness and leadership qualities on 28th November. Interviews are held with our Head of Sport.

Academic Scholar. We assess attainment at formal examinations on 14th November for external candidates that include Mathematics, English, and Verbal Reasoning. For Sixth Form scholarships, candidates will also sit papers in their preferred subjects. (Internal candidates 21st November)

Bursaries

In addition to the Scholarships, a Governors’ Bursary Scheme is available for entry to the School. The aim of this is to assist those families whose income is such that they would not be able to allow their child to benefit from the education offered by the school. Bursaries are awarded on the basis of a statement of annual income and completion of the usual entry procedures which include an interview with the Headmaster and an assessment in English, Mathematics and a Reasoning (I.Q) test.

Parents who wish to apply for a bursary should complete the School’s registration form and request a Bursary form from the Bursar, Mrs V Bryson, [email protected] who would be pleased to discuss or clarify, in confidence, any matter relating to the scheme.
