Learning Support at Highclare School.
As part of our whole school commitment to achieving individual excellence for all pupils, the Learning Support Department is an integral component in supporting the needs of pupils in our school and endorsing the school’s aims.
Pupils with additional needs are supported by the Learning Support Department across the three sites of the school and this provision is overseen by the Learning Support Co-ordinators for EYFS, Key stages 1 and 2 and Key stages 3,4 and 5.
U3 (Yr 7) Scholarships and Bursaries
Scholarships: Academic scholarships are awarded to pupils who perform particularly well in the U3 (Year 7) entrance assessments and who demonstrate a considerable degree of all-round commitment to the School. The formal assessment is followed by a short interview with the Head of Senior School.
Additional specialist scholarships are also awarded to pupils showing a particular talent in art, music or sport. Pupils must attend an audition/ test in order to be considered.
Highclare School Governors Prize (HSGP): Highclare School Governors Prize is an annually-awarded, means tested bursary (to cover up to 100% of school fees) given to one pupil with outstanding academic potential upon entry to the school at U3 (Year 7). The award is made following a successful entrance assessment and interview and is given at the discretion of the Headmaster.
Bursaries: The School is pleased to be able to offer a number of bursaries to capable students from families on lower incomes who can prove evidence of limited ability to pay full fees. They are allocated on a scale related broadly to household income and are offered, with the exception of Highclare School Governors Prize, to cover up to a maximum of 30% fees. Application forms are available from the Admissions Registrar.
Sixth Form Scholarships and Bursaries
Scholarships: Academic scholarships, attitude to learning scholarships and specialist scholarships in art, music and sport are available for members of the sixth form. Any potential sixth former can earn the right to be called a scholar and academic scholarships are awarded solely on the basis of results achieved at GCSE.
Bursaries: The School is pleased to be able to offer a number of bursaries to capable students from families on lower incomes who can prove evidence of limited ability to pay full fees. They are allocated on a scale related broadly to household income and are offered, with the exception of HSGP, to cover up to a maximum of 30% fees.
