Fee Assistance: Bursaries and Academic Awards

The Governors of the Dragon School recognise that independent school fees are now at levels that exclude many children from a Dragon education. To help parents, the Dragon offers financial assistance to help with fees in the form of means-tested bursaries and awards based on ability.

Needs-based Bursaries can cover all or a substantial portion of the fees for boarding or day places.

Academic Awards of up to half the fees are also made to candidates chosen on the basis of significant academic promise. Prospective candidates are encouraged to contribute actively to the sporting and cultural life of the school. 

Neither of these types of grant has to be repaid.

"A breadth of academic, cultural and sporting education that otherwise would not have been possible."
