Scholarships are awarded annually to particularly talented children who will be assessed through tests, exams and observations. They may also be interviewed by a range of staff and references from current schools will be required.
Scholarships may be awarded either for a high level of attainment and future potential or for specialist aptitude in a particular area.
Junior Scholarships are for pupils entering into year 9 at Bryanston. A significant number of scholarships are awarded each year.
Scholarships available
Academic
Bryanston's unique academic system allows academically gifted pupils to develop their intellectual profile by challenging themselves in a number of ways: inside the classroom through the curriculum; with their tutor in the weekly one-to-one tutorial; and also through the academic enrichment and co-curricular programmes.

Art scholarship candidates should have a creative commitment to art, showing a lively interest in the subject and possessing strong observational drawing and recording skills.
