Scholarships and Awards
Scholarships and Awards
Our Scholarships acknowledge exceptional individual ability and talent in a particular area. They are competitive and are highly valued by universities and future employers. Exhibitions may also be awarded to recognise impressive ability and potential.
Scholars are offered a range of bespoke opportunities with considerable value, including mentoring, masterclasses, trips, workshops and regular specialist meetings.
Scholars are expected to participate in all events relating to their specialism and identify ways in which they can use their talents to contribute to the wider School community. They should demonstrate leadership and initiative and perform at a very high standard in their specialist area, showing exemplary commitment and dedication.
Applicants should have considerable potential; ideally, they will already be achieving the best possible marks in their respective fields, whether academic or practical. In addition, applicants should be outstanding role models for other pupils.
Honorary Scholarships for Senior School embrace all the benefits of being a Scholar, but do not carry the fee remission.
All Scholarships are awarded for as long as the pupil remains at the School, provided that their progress, conduct and commitment are excellent, subject to annual review. Applicants can apply for a maximum of two scholarships at each entry point and the maximum number of scholarships that can be held at any one time is two.
