Terms and conditions of bursary awards

The High Mistress or business director may decide to withdraw financial support in the unlikely event of a student's unsatisfactory work, poor conduct or failure to fulfil the terms of the parent contract. To help parents budget, all bursaries are “index-linked” in that they are awarded as a percentage of the published fees, so that when the fees increase, the bursary automatically increases. We require parents to complete a financial assessment form for each year of their daughter’s participation in the scheme. We may adjust bursaries up or down in value as the family’s income or assets change. The bursary scheme is intended to provide, at the sole and exclusive discretion of St Pauls', assistance with regards to costs directly associated with attendance of a girl at the school. Parents who apply for bursaries do so on the full understanding that awards are discretionary, and that there is no right of appeal against our decision. we may withdraw a bursary or reclaim past payment if we are knowingly or recklessly provided with false information on income/assets.
