Scholarship Guidance
Scholarships are awarded to families with a total taxable household income of £42,875 or below on a first come first served basis, so we encourage all students to apply as soon as they can.
Although not guaranteed, we may be able to offer new/additional scholarships during the year, so please apply if your circumstances change.
In 2025/26, we are also able to award scholarships to students who are from a Global Majority background and/or disabled.
