There’s a lot to recommend this school in Ipswich. For a start, it’s considered one of the top independent schools in Suffolk, punching above its weight academically, and it also makes a splash in sports, music and drama. It has roots going back to 1399, and its mix of old and modern architecture on its current site (where it has been since 1852) is truly inspiring.

    Bursaries

     

    The school awards up to eight Year 7 means-tested bursaries each year, the total value of which varies each year. These can have a value of up to 100% of school fees. Pupils do not need to apply for or win a scholarship in order to be considered for a bursary. 

    Income, assets and outgoings are considered when applying for a bursary, and each family is assessed individually. Bursaries are re-evaluated on an annual basis.
