It gives them a great start in life.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Whitgift School offers bursaries for applicants up to 110% of the fee amount to cover the cost of tuition fees and support additional costs such as school uniform, lunches and trips. Bursary amounts are means-tested and dependent on a family\u2019s individual financial circumstances and highest performance on the entrance exams. Whitgift School receives financial support from John Whitgift Foundation each year to support one in ten of the 1,500 students. The bursaries benefit the entire school community by enhancing academic and wider curricular standards and continue to make Whitgift School a more socially cohesive community. This further reinforces the aspirational and inclusive nature of the foundation and Whitgift School.<\/p>\n<p>John Whitgift Foundation grant over \u00a35 million a year in bursaries across our three schools to grant life changing opportunities for young people in the Croydon area and grant them an outstanding education.
