Applying for the Bursary programme
We welcome applications from parents who have children with academic potential entering Year 7 in September 2025 but would not be able to afford full fees without financial support.
As part of the bursary selection process families will be required to complete a means-tested application that considers total household income and assets. This will determine how much the Bursary award is for.
Applicants for the Bursary programme must register with us and book to attend our January assessment in order that we can progress the application for financial support. For more information, please see our Frequently Asked Questions.
20 Pupils supported with Bursaries
A bursary award covers school fees and in some circumstances can be extended to provide support with other costs such as providing a laptop. Our fees are inclusive of educational day trips, curriculum residentials, lunch, stationery, textbooks and many hobbies. Parents are asked to cover the cost of uniforms, travel to school and any discretionary activities, for example, individual music lessons.
The award would usually be given to support school fees for Year 7 to Year 11 but will be subject to periodic review.
Bursary awards are not the same as scholarships, this is because a bursary award is means tested whereas scholarships are open to any pupil with the potential in our four award areas. To learn more about our scholarships please click here.
