All Academic Scholarships have a fixed value of £1,000 per annum, but will carry with them the opportunity to apply for an additional fee reduction which, depending on parental income and assets, may be up to 100% of the school fee.

Reigate Grammar School Assisted Places
This is a 'means-tested' scheme with fee remission determined on a sliding scale which will offer up to 100% of the tuition fees. Children who have reached the required academic standard, but whose parents could not otherwise afford full fees, will be eligible for these places. Assistance towards the cost of school uniform, school meals and travel costs may also be available in cases of particular need. Prospective parents interested in obtaining further details should contact the Bursar.

Bursaries
Limited funds are available to alleviate temporary financial hardship, and families are able to discuss individual situations with the Bursar in the hope that a mutually acceptable arrangement can be found.

Discounts for Brothers and Sisters
When families have two or more children at Reigate Grammar School at the same time, a 5% discount is allowed in respect of the second child, and a 10% discount for the third and any subsequent children.

If you have any further questions about fees, scholarships or assisted places, please contact the Bursar.
