Scholarships at 11+ and 13+

Heathfield offers Academic, Art, Drama, Music, and Sport Scholarships at 11+ and 13+.

Scholars must demonstrate significant levels of academic, creative, or sporting enthusiasm, achievement and potential. An award carries with it title and prestige and gives the holder access to our scholarship programme to further potential. There is no monetary award or remission of fees. 11+ and 13+ scholarships remain in place until the end of Form V but scholars may re-apply for Sixth Form Scholarships.

Scholars make significant contributions to the school and will develop their skills and potential through support from their personal mentor. 11+ and 13+ subject scholars will be required to follow the relevant subject to GCSE level to retain the scholarship, Sixth Form subject scholars should follow the relevant subject at A Level.

Assessments and auditions for 2025 scholarships will be held on Thursday 21 November and the deadline for receipt of applications is Friday 18 October.  For further information and to apply please click on this link.
