Navigating Scholarships and Bursaries
The Basics
The world of scholarships and bursaries can be a complex one, but essentially, a scholarship rewards academic, performing arts or sporting excellence, while a bursary is awarded based on financial need.
Realistic Expectations
- Honesty is the Best Policy: Be truthful about your abilities and your family's financial circumstances. Overestimating either can lead to disappointment.
- The Whole Package: Kingsley isn't just looking at academic prowess, the school will consider your overall personality, potential, and how well you'll fit into the community here in North Devon.
- The Role of the Parent: Cultivate a positive and supportive family environment, approaching the scholarship process with a relaxed and confident mindset. At Kingsley, we prioritise both academic success and emotional well-being, and we encourage parents to adopt a similar approach.
Key Tips for Success
- Time Management: Ensure you meet deadlines and submit all required paperwork on time.
- Transparency: Be honest and upfront about your strengths, weaknesses, and any support you've received.
- A Calm Demeanour: While you may be nervous, please do try and elax and be yourself.
- A Backup Plan: Have a clear understanding of your options
- Reach out to the Admissions Team: If you, or your parents, have any questions, large or small, Peggy and Heather in the Admissions Team are here to help you. Their email is admissions@kinsgleydevon.com or they can be reached on 01237 426200.
Remember, a scholarship or bursary is not a guaranteed outcome. It's important to approach the process with a positive mindset and realistic expectations. By following these tips, you can increase your chances of securing financial assistance for your Sixth Form studies.
