Bursaries
Godolphin is committed to broadening access to prospective families as well as supporting current families. We offer a limited number of means-tested bursaries. They are awarded on a case-by-case basis and based on financial need, taking into consideration academic ability, and are reviewed annually.
We do not offer full bursaries and parents are expected to make a contribution to the fees. The value of the award is calculated on a sliding scale that takes into account the financial position of both parents’ income and assets. Please note that bursary applications for combined incomes over £75,000 may not be considered.
To apply for a means tested bursary, first you will need to register your child at Godolphin. We will then work with Bursary Administration Ltd, who administer bursary applications on our behalf, to help guide you through the process.
The deadline for applications for September 2026 entry is Friday 28 November 2025. Bursary decisions are communicated alongside decisions on school places.

The Old Godolphin Association also provides one means-tested bursary each year to the child of a former Godolphin pupil. Candidates for the OGA bursary will need to apply via the means-tested bursary process.
Do you have a question about assistance with fees?
If you think a Godolphin education could be right for your child but you're unsure about affordability, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we can talk you through the bursary process and answer any questions.
