Warwick Preparatory School

Starting in September 2025, Warwick Schools Foundation are proud to extend the CV34 Award Programme to those children entering in 7+ (Year 3), in addition to the 11+ (Year 7) and 16+ (Lower Sixth) entry points. With the extension of the CV34 Award Programme to those joining us at Warwick Preparatory School in Year 3, this now means that eligible candidates can be supported throughout their entire journey with us at Warwick Schools Foundation.

The CV34 Awards are a specific set of bursaries which are earmarked for children whose families live within the CV34 postcode. The school is grateful to King Henry VIII Endowed Trust and The Charity of Sir Thomas White, Warwick for their financial support for this set of bursaries.

To be eligible for a bursary-funded place, children must also meet the usual conditions of entry – that is, they must satisfy the requirements of the school’s assessment and interview processes. There are limited funds available, so not all children who are offered a place at the school will also be offered a bursary, even if the financial assessment deems them to be eligible. The bursaries are awarded on a competitive basis and are limited to the funds available. All bursaries are re-assessed annually.

The support available is based on a combination of the following:

Financial need - determined by a means testing assessment by our external partners Bursary Assessment Associates (BAA).  

Your child's performance - based on exam results, the interview and the report received from your child's current school.

Overall demand - bursaries are awarded on a competitive basis, as limited funds are available.

To be eligible for a CV34 Award, applicants must fulfil the three criteria above AND live in the CV34 postcode area.
