FINANCIAL SUPPORT (BURSARIES)

We are pleased to be able to offer means-tested bursaries for external candidates at Year 7 (11+), Year 9 (13+) and the Sixth Form (16+). A bursary can be applied for on top of a Scholarship or Award, or separately. Bursaries are awarded according to need and are not dependent on academic performance, although the pupil in question must satisfy the School’s standard entry requirements and continue to work to a satisfactory standard whilst in the School. Only in exceptional circumstances will the award of a Bursary be considered in the Junior School. The main point at which bursaries are awarded is at entry to Year 7 or Year 9 in the Senior School, and in such cases the Bursary would normally remain available through to the completion of the pupil’s education at Badminton. A number of Scholarships are available to Lower Sixth pupils including the Sixth Form Day Girl Award for those joining from a State Secondary School and bursaries may also be available.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND AWARDS

Every year, Scholarships and Awards are available to girls entering Badminton in the Junior School, Year 7 (11+), Year 9 (13+) and the Sixth Form (16+). Scholarships are awarded to girls with a talent in a particular area and Awards are more discretionary, given to girls where we see real potential. All Awards and Scholarships bestowed come with a remission on fees. Application for a Scholarship or Award should be made at the point of registration and Scholarship assessments will take place alongside our entrance assessments.

For more information on our Scholarships and Awards, please refer to the Scholarships and Awards Booklet found on our website.
