SUPPORT BURSARY STUDENTS TODAY
Give A Single Gift
We are honoured and grateful to receive gifts of all sizes towards 100% bursaries. Each and every gift is a valued contribution and makes a difference to bursary recipients. We hope that many more members of the Fettes community will consider donating to collectively help create significant impact.
Set Up A Regular Donation
The more regular donations we receive, the more powerful your giving becomes:
223 people donating £15 a month
67 people donating £150 a quarter
27 people donating £1500 a year could fully fund the annual school fees of a 100% bursary recipient.
My parents would not have been able to send me to Fettes had I not secured financial support. Receiving this made all the difference and opened up a future for me. I was always very conscious of the need to give back. I tried to do so while at Fettes, followed by a career in global education support in developing countries, and now by earmarking my own modest alumni support for bursaries to help those who could otherwise not attend Fettes today, which I would encourage others to consider supporting if they are able.

All bursaries at Fettes are objectively meanstested and awarded to those who will gain the most from a Fettes education in the opinion of the Head. This ensures that your bursary donations are used with most effect and greatest impact.
For students in need of the highest level of financial assistance, your donations cover not just fees but also extracurricular activities, educational trips, uniform and equipment.
We strongly support the commitment Fettes has made to broaden access to the school through means-tested bursaries and we have donated specifically towards the 100% bursary fund. The offer of a Fettes education gives talented and aspiring children the opportunity and support to achieve their full potential.
Donations towards 100% bursaries are important and crucial in supporting these offers and are hugely welcomed and appreciated by the school. We hope more are able to donate towards this initiative.
