HARROW DEVELOPMENT TRUST SILVER ARROW
BURSARIES AND SCHOLARSHIPS Harrow’s admissions policy focuses on bringing boys with a wide range of talents, abilities and backgrounds to the School. This is, in part, thanks to the School’s national and international reach, and a combination of scholarship awards for excellence in academic study, the arts or sport, and the provision of a range of means-tested bursaries. In recent years, the Harrow Development Trust has focused on several bursary initiatives: The Foundation Awards Fund, the Peter Beckwith Scholarship Scheme, Sir John Beckwith Outstanding Talent Awards, Sherwood Awards and Kane Sixth Form Scholarships. Looking forward, we have plans to expand considerably the School’s bursary provision to accommodate a greater diversity of awards, including support for middle-income families.

CHURCHILL PLACES In 2020, we are establishing Churchill Places, a new bursary scheme which will offer boys requiring financial assistance and who demonstrate ‘Churchillian’ characteristics; leadership, tenacity, determination, the opportunity of a Harrow education. The HDT aims to raise £10m for this exciting scheme by 2025, which will fund five Churchill Places per year. The identification of suitable candidates will be supported by the appointment of a new Access Officer.
