At Birkenhead School, we believe that an outstanding education should be accessible to all talented students, regardless of financial circumstances. Our Scholarships & Bursary Scheme ensures that academically able and gifted children can benefit from everything our School has to offer.
Bursaries are awarded to help students take up or retain a place at the School where their parents or guardian cannot pay full fees. All Bursaries are means-tested and may cover up to 100% of the full fee. It is unusual for very young children to be awarded Bursaries as assessment of their potential has to be established before a bursary can be considered.
In addition to bursaries, the School offers the following Scholarships:
Academic and Music carry a one-off monetary value, are available for exceptional candidates (available to both existing Prep students and new students joining Seniors):
A small number of Awards, carrying a one-off monetary value, will be available for exceptional candidates, both existing (if not in receipt of an existing award) and new students joining at Year 9. All candidates are required to evidence their exceptional contribution to School life, not only in performance, but also in their commitment and values shown.
Access Scholarships are available to students who have not previously benefitted from an independent education:
