St Helen and St Katharine
Founded in 1903, St Helen and St Katharine is an independent day school for girls aged 9–18 in Abingdon, six miles south of Oxford. St Helen’s is a school for bright girls with enquiring minds, a place where success is celebrated but not revered. Our aim is to ensure that every student achieves success as she defines it, so that she can believe in herself, her talents and abilities, and feel prepared and equipped for life beyond school.

Scholarships
Scholarships are awarded to recognise excellence, ability and potential in one or more academic or extracurricular area. St Helen and St Katharine offers a range of scholarships at 11+, 13+ and 16+ for academic ability, art, drama, music, sport and an all-rounder award. The financial value of awards is modest and they are not subject to means testing. Students may hold awards in more than one area (the second being of honorary rather than of financial value) but cannot hold two non-academic awards.
Bursaries
Opening up access for families who would not otherwise be able to afford the fees has always been central to our ethos. This means that we can offer support between 20-100% of fees to families who can demonstrate through a means testing process that they could not otherwise send their daughter to St Helen's.
