WIDENING
ACCESS TO ROEDEAN
The School is thoroughly committed to social mobility and facilitating access to our remarkable academic and holistic education, and actively seeks out high-achieving students who would benefit from attending Roedean.
Thanks to generous donations from Old Roedeanians, and the School’s commitment to widening access to an outstanding education, deserving students are able to win awards and benefit from bursaries. For many, these awards are genuinely transformational, and none more so than the Ukrainian recipients who have been forced to flee their country.
Extending these opportunities to talented students, regardless of their background, reflects the desire of our founding Lawrence sisters to provide girls with an all-round education of the highest quality.
“My time at Roedean helped me develop so many skills that have
helped to prepare me for my life at the
University of Bristol and beyond. I had so much fun with boarding, lessons, music, and sports, that I can’t imagine my life without these experiences. The
Roedean staff were all so supportive in helping me seize every opportunity possible, and helping me to learn new skills. I am so grateful for my time at Roedean, which was only made possible through the bursary I was
