Bursaries

The School recognises that there are children who wish to come to Bryanston but whose parents would find it hard, if not impossible, to pay the fees.

The Governors have always sought to help parents with modest means to send their children to Bryanston, and this determination remains. The funds that support this ambition are limited – but growing with the assistance of the School’s active Development Department.

How to apply

In order to ensure that these limited funds are distributed equitably, all applicants are asked to complete a standard 'Statement of Financial Circumstances'. The information given in this application forms the basis of a discussion between the Chief Operating Officer, Finance Director and the parents, and contributes to a decision made by the Bursary team and the Headmaster as to the availability and size of bursary assistance.

Criteria for a bursary

The criteria for a bursary, in addition to financial need, are:

that the prospective pupil will fulfil the academic requirements for the appropriate year of entry;
that the prospective pupil will engage in the whole life of the school;
that the parents, the prospective pupil and the Headmaster agree that attendance at the School will be a positive experience for the pupil; and
the balance of fees due and other extras will be paid by the due date for payment.

A bursary can stand alone as assistance, or it can be supplementary to the assistance offered by a scholarship award. All bursaries are reviewed annually and are subject to the School’s terms and conditions.
