Bursaries & Assisted Places
Fees Support at Chengelo
Chengelo School attempts to provide bursaries or assisted places for a number of our pupils, ranging from 25% to 75% of fees, although the standard would be 50% of fees.
The purpose of these is to provide support to parents or children in the following situations:
- Parents are in full time Christian ministry
- Local farmers
- Children already at the school who lose a parent or main supporter
- Existing parents facing unexpected financial difficulties
.The committee will take the following into account:
- Need
- Supporting documentation
- Interview with parents (if required)
- Participation in general school life
- Recent school reports (both academic and conduct)
Generally awards will be for one school year only and will require reapplication each year should support continue to be required.
How to Apply
An initial expression of interest should be emailed to the Finance Manager on financemanager@chengeloschool.org. If all requirements are met, the Finance Manager will get in touch via email with directions on how to continue your application. Please note: For pupils not yet at the school, the child must have first been offered a place before beginning this process.
Should you have any questions regarding the application you are welcome to contact the school for further information.The Bursary committee reviews all applications in October each year for allocation of funds for the following year.
Please note:
All applications are dealt with in strictest confidence and under no circumstances will applications be discussed with any persons other than the Chengelo Board of Governors and the Bursary committee. In turn we request that applicants do not divulge details of applications and results. We realise this is a sensitive area and would not like comparisons to be made by persons who are not involved.
We ask applicants to be completely open and frank in giving reasons for applications. Our task is made that much easier if all information is available.
