Bursaries & Scholarships
St Margaret's School offers the very best possible learning environment and we want a St Margaret’s education to be accessible to all – whatever your geographical location or economic background.
Bursaries (Financial Assistance)
Any pupil can apply for a Bursary (financial assistance with a place). All Bursary applications are treated equally and are means-tested, based on parental income and outgoings. Your child’s education will be the best investment you will ever make, and we aim to make this affordable.
