BURSARIES
As a small family school we are particularly proud to have supported and funded many of our children through the early part of their education, both for short and long periods. These children have continued on to both state and independent secondary schools and some have been awarded academic scholarships, chorister scholarships and various art and music awards.
Many children who have joined the school at a later stage, have benefitted from the small, tutorial size classes at the top of the school, particularly children who lack confidence in their abilities and those with academic potential but who may have missed the chance of a good academic foundation. We welcome and enjoy helping these children fulfill their potential to achieve a successful outcome at the 11+ entrance examinations.
The school welcomes applications from parents who feel that their child would benefit from attending Connaught House but who may not be able to afford the full fees.
There are also various music bursaries for boys and girls who have made exceptional progress with their musical studies in school. These are normally awarded to pupils already attending the school and at the recommendation of their music teachers.
The School respects the confidentiality of bursary awards made to families and recipients are expected to do likewise. The school is a data controller under the Data Protection Act and information submitted in connection with bursary applications will be processed lawfully and fairly in accordance with the Data Protection Act.
