NHSG Scholar Awards

NHSG Head’s Scholar Award

This prestigious award is reserved for the girl who achieves the highest combined result across all our entrance examination papers and is subject to approval from the Head. The award is for the value of up to a 30% remission of school fees.

NHSG Scholar Awards

NHSG Scholar Awards are reserved for girls who perform exceptionally well in our entrance examinations and demonstrate all-round academic ability. They are awarded to the highest ranked pupils based on their entrance examination results.

There are a maximum of seven Scholar Awards available for up to a 20% remission of school fees. The actual number and amounts awarded will be dependent on the performance of pupils in our entrance examinations.

Making an application

All applicants completing our Year 7 entrance assessment are considered for a Scholar Award.

Parents of pupils who are joining NHSG for the first time are required to complete the school entrance application form after which their daughter will be required to undergo our entrance assessment process. This means they will: • Complete the NHSG Year 7 entrance examinations on 15th January 2022. These will include English and Maths examinations as well as the CEM Select

Entrance Assessment which measures verbal, nonverbal and mathematical skills • Attend an interview with a member of the School’s

Senior Leadership Team, subject to performance in the entrance examinations

• Provide a recent report from their current school The application deadline for the Year 7 Scholar Award is Wednesday 15th December 2021. Pupils currently in Year 6 at NHSG (and who were therefore assessed for entrance when they joined the School), will not be assessed again for entrance to Senior School but will all undertake the Year 7 entrance examinations in January 2022. These will be the same examinations as those taken by girls applying to join NHSG in Year 7. All girls in Year 6 at NHSG will therefore be considered for a NHSG Scholar Award.

Please note:

A girl receiving a NHSG Scholar Award is expected to show dedication and commitment to her studies throughout her time at NHSG. A Scholar Award may be combined with an Exhibition Award and/or a Bursary Award subject to means-testing and academic performance in our Year 7 entrance assessments.

Applications received after 15th December 2021 will not be considered.The School’s decision on awards is final and will be confirmed in March 2022.
