    Bursaries

    Bursaries at Christ’s Hospital ensure more young people from disadvantaged backgrounds can thrive. They can open doors for children who have faced many challenges in their lives, and it can be a real turning point. Access to a first-class education, the individual attention, stable boarding environment, pastoral care and the feeling of belonging to a stable community at CH, can be invaluable for children to flourish and reach their potential.
