At Dame Allan’s Schools, we are very proud of our long history of providing support to pupils who would not otherwise be able to access the excellent opportunities we offer to our pupils. It is our firm belief that academic excellence should be nurtured and developed regardless of parental circumstances.

Financial assistance is offered in the form of scholarships and bursaries. The majority of bursaries are awarded in Year 7, and pupils can be in receipt of both scholarship and bursary awards.

Bursaries are made available to applicants whose parental circumstances are such that they would not be able to attend the Schools without such an award. They are means-tested and awarded on academic merit. Bursary awards are worth up to 100% of fees.

Prospective pupils must sit the entrance exam in January to be considered for a bursary.
