Scholarships, Bursaries & Fees
We have some means-tested bursary support available to provide support for children to join the school irrespective of family income. Subject to places being available and to a detailed assessment of family income, children may join the school with up to 100% remission of fees. Further details are available from the Finance and Operations Manager.
Fees Information
As an independent school we must charge fees in order to provide excellent education and care because we receive no money from central or local government. As a registered charity we are a not-for-profit school and only charge fees that are necessary to run the school properly and to provide investment for continuing improvements to our facilities and resources.
We believe that our fees provide real value for money and we know that they compare very favourably with similar outstanding schools.
