Bursaries

Scholarships and bursaries at Queen’s College have the linked roles of encouraging the most talented young people to choose this school and simultaneously helping to ensure that fees are not an overwhelming obstacle to taking up a place at Queen’s.

Bursaries are means-tested against family resources and are intended to help families with financial difficulties meet the cost of school fees. They may be used to “top-up” a scholarship or be awarded on a stand-alone basis.

Facts & figures

The total number of scholarships and bursaries, plus the percentage discounts awarded, is at the Headmaster’s discretion. The exact numbers will vary from year to year in accordance with a range of factors. Scholarships may be applied for at three ages; 11+, 13+ and 16+. Dates for exams, tests and auditions will be published at the beginning of each academic year. Further details, including guidance on performance levels required to be eligible for a scholarship are available from the school office.

Terms & Conditions

All awards will be monitored for appropriate performance and effort. There will be a major review of the scholarship at the end of the GCSE year. Scholars would normally be expected to remain at Queen’s College for the Sixth Form.
