Shiplake College

Year 7 scholarships are held for two years and reviewed at the end of Year 8, with a view to continuing following Year 9 entry. Year 9 scholarships are held for three years, provided the boy’s conduct and performance in their scholarship domain is preserved. Pupils are then re-assessed at the end of Year 11 and may be offered a further scholarship for Sixth Form. Year 12 scholarships are held for two years, provided the pupil’s conduct and dedication to their area of excellence is maintained.

In recognition of their achievements, scholars offered a 10% reduction in the fees, whilst exhibitors are offered 5%. In exceptional circumstances, higher values may be awarded. However, parents of scholars who anticipate that they will experience difficulty in meeting the balance of the tuition fees are encouraged to simultaneously apply for a means-tested bursary after registering their child.
