apply for a bursary provided they have been o ered a place at the school and are resident in the UK (for the purposes of due diligence in reviewing nancial documentation). Means-tested bursaries will look at the applicants’ nancial circumstances and a ordability to assess the amount of bursary to be o ered, so you will need to provide evidence of income and assets, all of which will be handled in the strictest con dence. Bursary applications are processed completely separately to admissions, meaning that all information pertaining to the award remains solely within the Bursar’s o ce. Because the bursary fund is a nite ‘pot’, there is an annual deadline for applications, in order that funds can be allocated to help as many pupils as possible each year.

ere are also additional fee remissions available for siblings, children of former pupils and those in the Armed Forces, and these remissions are not means-tested, so it is always worth asking what is available at the school you are looking at. Almost a quarter of all pupils at Strathallan receive bursary support covering up to 100 per cent of school fees.

Perhaps you have been impressed by the reputation of an independent school but felt that the exceptional experience on o er is beyond your nancial capacity? Or maybe you have concerns that attending the school on a bursary will single out your child as ‘di erent’? It’s worth remembering that bursary provision is fundamental to the independent school system and that the best schools will have a policy that is supportive, inclusive and accessible. Every child should be treated as an individual and, for many children, attending an independent school really does make a transformative di erence. So, if independent education seems like it could be the right t for your child but not something you’ve considered due to the nancial implications, you might want to further investigate bursaries and how they could help your family. It could be the rst step of a life-changing journey.
