Donors and Supporters

Thank you so much to all of our community who have taken the time to share their stories, volunteer, or make a donation. Your support is making a difference to our pupils every day. From providing bursaries to giving your time and expertise on careers; from sharing your inspiring stories to helping us transform the School estate; your support has been incredible.

The School received £292,942 in income from donations, gifts and legacies during the year. Donations came from across our community - our current parents, alumni, parents of alumni, staff, governors, trusts and foundations. The impact of donations to Monkton is far reaching, and you can read more about the pupils who have benefited from bursaries and the work we were able to complete on buildings over the coming pages.

As well as generously giving donations of money, several members of our community have given their time to help organise events, support career mentoring, and manage our archives.

Bursaries

Helping those who could not otherwise afford an education at Monkton has always been a key part of Monkton’s philosophy. From its early days supporting the sons of the clergy to war time refugees, children of those in the armed forces to the provision today for those from socially or economically deprived communities, Monkton has a proud history of support and inclusivity.

93 Terminologies

Scholarships:

Scholarships were awarded at the Senior and Prep Schools based on academic achievement and achievement in other specified fields, such as sports and music, in scholarship examinations set by the Schools.

Bursaries:

Bursaries provide financial support to pupils whose families cannot afford private education, including clergy and missionary families. All bursaries are means tested and reviewed annually.

Other Fee Remissions:

The School continues to offer fee remissions to a number of specific categories of pupils such as siblings, children of HM Forces personnel (in addition to the MOD’s own Continuity of Education Allowance) and children of staff.

Royal Springboard Foundation:

Monkton is proud to be a partner of the Royal Springboard Foundation (RSF) to offer a full boarding position to at least one disadvantaged pupil which is free at the point of delivery. Monkton works with RSF to find a pupil that will thrive. This has also encouraged donations to support these pupils. In the academic year 2020-21 we had two springboarders at the School.

Christian Leadership Bursaries:

So many of our community responded to our call to help families that are doing mission work to enable their children to attend sixth form. We raised enough to fund two pupils through sixth form and we were delighted to welcome them to the School in September 2021.

Case Study

Fadi Girgis, Class of 2016

“I had one of the best times of my life at Monkton. I met a lot of incredible people, I made lots of incredible friends. I had a lot of incredible experiences not only academic but on the sports pitch, in the music block but also a lot of it in the Maths and Science block. I am only studying at Uni today because of the incredible times I had at Monkton.”
