    Situation

    A Rugby education is accessible to any good applicant irrespective of means. The School continues to offer fully funded means-tested day places through the Lawrence Sheriff Bequest. In addition the Arnold Foundation for Rugby School provides fully funded means-tested bursaries for boarding places for pupils who could not otherwise afford to be at the School. We are committed to being able to offer the life-changing opportunity a Rugby School education can bring which, for many of our applicants, means significant sums to cover full support for fees and extras. It is hugely important that Arnold Foundation pupils and their families are able to embrace life at Rugby School making it a great experience for them all. We continue to provide additional support to pupils through our Arnold Foundation Tutor and the Assistant Head. Our parent co-coordinator provides advice and support to all Arnold Foundation parents whenever it is needed. It is our aim to increase the number of funded pupils to 10% of the School or some 80 pupils supported by the Arnold Foundation for Rugby School or the Lawrence Sheriff Bequest. We believe we have solid foundations on which to do this. We aim to fund these important places through revenue and invested income. We need to secure significantly more than £1million every year in order to be able to support the many excellent candidates applying now for places at Rugby.
