HARDSHIP APPLICATION FORM

What are the Hardship Funds?

We are fortunate to have the generous support of The John Roan Foundation behind us.  Each year, the Trustees allocate funds to the school to support our families who have difficulty in paying for:

  1. Curriculum trips, visits and year group residential trips (up to 100% of the cost)
  2. Uniform, shoes or sports kit

The allocation of funds from The Hardship Fund is discretionary and, if awarded, does not need to be repaid.
