Year 3 and Year 7 Scholarships
The Prebendal School is pleased to offer a range of scholarships to pupils entering our prep school (or those already at the school) for this September. We award a number of Academic, Art, Drama, Music and Sports Scholarships each year for entry into Year 7. From Year 3, only Music Scholarships are offered. Applications are warmly welcomed from children who are not currently pupils at Prebendal.

We have an excellent reputation for helping children successfully gain entry into the senior school of their choice, and many of these pupils enter with scholarships. Typically, between 70-80% of our Year 8 pupils receive scholarships and awards to their next school.

In order to maintain and enhance this impressive record, we offer scholarships for outstanding children who excel academically, or who have a particular talent in Art, Drama, Music or Sport.Our Scholarships may also be topped-up with a means-tested Bursary.

The closing date for all applications is Monday 23rd January. We accept late Year 3 applications due to the ages of pupils involved, and appreciate that sometimes a Summer Term audition is more appropriate for younger children.

All Year 7 applications should be sent to the school office by 23rd January. Applications for Year 3 may be sent at any time throughout the Lent and Summer terms, but it is recommended that you do so as early as possible as the number of scholarships is limited.

Year 8 Destinations
Our Year 8 pupils consistently achieve a range of scholarships and awards to a variety of prestigious senior independent schools.

Spanning a wide spectrum of specialist areas – All-Rounder, Academic, Art, Drama, Music, Outstanding Talent, Sport, Chess, Choral, Head's Awards and Governors' Awards – we have a great track record in ensuring that our Year 8 pupils continue their education at schools that are a natural fit for them.

Typically, 70-80% of our pupils go on to their senior schools with a scholarship.
