Bursaries

Independent education represents a significant investment for families and our bursaries are awarded up to 30% of tuition fees. All bursary applications are means tested and handled by an external agency prior to a recommendation being made. 


Scholarships and Discretionary Bursaries can both be ‘topped up’ by a means tested bursary. Parents applying for a means tested bursary will be required to complete financial disclosure forms at the same time as any Scholarship application. A decision will be made by the Headmaster in consultation with the Principal.
