Bursaries

The Governors of Heath Mount School are committed to broadening access to the School by offering to eligible parents/guardians means-tested financial support with the payment of schools fees.  Such support is known as a bursary and these may be awarded in the form of a discount of up to 100% on tuition fees, depending on the financial, compassionate or other pertinent circumstances of applicants.

Bursary awards are subject to repeat means testing every other year and may be varied upwards or downwards, depending on parental circumstances.   Awards are made based on information provided by parents/guardians relating to their income and expenditure.

Requests for financial support usually fall into two categories:

• New applicants to the School - where a place has been offered but parents/guardians are unable to fund the tuition fees.

• Existing pupils - where a change in parents'/guardians’ circumstances has resulted in difficulty in meeting tuition fees and might result in the child being withdrawn part way through a stage of education.

A copy of the school’s bursaries policy, along with an application form, is available from the Bursar (finance@heathmount.org).
