Bursaries

Bursaries are offered to broaden access to the School by offering, to eligible parents of gifted young people, some financial support with fees. Bursaries are only available to Senior School pupils and are awarded at 11+ or Sixth Form entry points.

Parents who wish to apply for a bursary should email bursaries@stbenedicts.org.uk. 

The deadline for applications is Friday 8 November 2024.

Applications for bursaries will not be considered after this date.

Bursary applications are only considered if a registration form has also been completed via our website. 

Applicants undertake the assessments relevant to the year group they are applying for. Some applicants will then be invited to an interview with the Headmaster and other senior staff. Home visits will also be conducted in January 2025.

Awards are confirmed with offer letters.

Bursary awards are subject to annual testing, which may result in the bursary being varied upward or downward depending on parental circumstances.

The above should be read in conjunction with the Bursary Policy.
