Bursaries
The School offers Bursary assistance to parents of girls entering the School where prospective parents would otherwise not be able to send their daughters to Queen Anne’s. Bursaries of up to 100% of fees are available. A Bursary and Scholarship may be held together by the same pupil. Uniform grants of up to £500 are also available for parents of girls entering the School. Exceptionally, funding for up to £125 per term of other extras may be granted in addition to a Bursary. Our aim in offering this assistance is to increase access to independent education.

All applications for Bursaries are considered on the basis of individual circumstances and are means tested. Please email us for an application form and more information.
