16-19 Bursaries and Financial Assistance

St Bede’s School wants to help wherever possible to ensure that students have a good experience of education and make progress irrespective of their family income. There are bursaries available to help eligible students with the essential costs of participating in their study programme. 

You make an initial application for a bursary and once this has been approved you can submit requests for payment or reimbursement of items as they arise.

If you have any questions regarding the bursary process, you can email sixthform@st-bedes.surrey.sch.uk or phone 01737 241071.

To see if you are eligible to apply for a bursary please read our 16-19 Bursaries and Financial Assistance Statement below. 

If your household income is above the £35000 threshold but there are reasons why you think you would benefit from a bursary please discuss this with Mrs Woodroofe, Mr Mackie or your Head of Year.

School trips and visits

In order to make school trips and visits financially viable we ask for a voluntary contribution from parents. This contribution would be the cost of the coach, entry fee to the venue and any activities or workshops/tuition per child.

If parents/carers cannot make the full contribution due to financial restraints, or your child is/children are entitled to Free School Meals please contact the trips department directly on trips@st-bedes.surrey.sch.uk. Please do not assume your child would not be able to go if you are unable to pay the full amount requested.
