Sibling discount
We are pleased to offer a 10% discount to families for their third son and any subsequent sons at the School. The 10% discount is applied to the boy(s) with the lower/lowest fees and is for the time when 3 or more siblings are in school simultaneously rather than for the whole duration of their time at Rokeby. The 10% discount is limited to boys where there are no other financial awards or financial support. The fees discount is a discretionary amount and is subject to the timely payment of school fees. At least a term’s notice will be given of any changes.
Bursaries/financial assistance
‘…facilities are excellent, including huge touchscreen boards, three whizzy science labs (‘there are lots of practicals,’ say boys), assorted music rooms (tuneful solos from windows – standard here is high) and fabulous corridor and classroom displays…’
Our bursary programme is designed to make it possible for boys who meet Rokeby School’s entry criteria to take up a place here. We offer means tested awards for pupils in Year 3 and above. If applying for entry at 7+ and above and you wish to be considered for a bursary, you should indicate this on the registration form that you require financial support.
Bursaries are means-tested and are assessed initially by an independent company who provides a report to the school. Each case is reviewed individually by typically 2 members of the Finance Committee and the school is not obliged to follow the recommendations of the independent company, however, we will consider their report. Both parents are required to provide proof of their income and assets. The level of support varies according to parental need and may be a percentage of the fees or can extend to full fee remission. Before the offer of a bursary is confirmed, a member of the independent company will have a meeting with the parents which could be online or may involve a visit to the family at their home.
Bursaries are usually offered for 12 months at a time with an annual renew to see whether the family’s financial circumstances have changed. The family is required to provide updated information about their circumstances every year that they wish to be considered for a bursary. Levels of support may vary with fluctuations in income. Bursaries are only offered to families who are resident in the UK.
The School’s expectation is that parents who do not choose to apply for a bursary at the time that their son is being assessed, will not require financial support throughout the time that their son attends the school, except due to wholly unforeseen circumstances.
