Financial assistance can be very substantial. This means we means test applicant families to ensure that we award places fairly. We reserve the right to review the level of assistance annually. Pupils in receipt of a financially assisted place must also maintain the highest standards of conduct, endeavour and commitment.
In order to apply for either a Scholarship or an Assisted Place you must submit a full application and Registration Form. You must also complete the £75 Registration Fee. If you wish to apply for a scholarship, we would like to ask you to complete a Scholarship Application Form. For enquiries about Scholarships, Bursaries or Assisted Places please contact our Registrar or the Admissions team directly.
If you require more information or clarification, please contact the Registrar or the Admissions team. The Scholarships and Bursaries Committee, who review all applications, meet once every half term, so on occasions an immediate answer may not be possible, but we will always do our best to let families know as soon as possible the outcome, following the submission of an application and all scholarship exams and assessments have been undertaken.
