Bursaries
Our Historic Purpose
Bursaries at Marlborough
Marlborough is committed to being the best co-educational boarding school in the UK for bursary pupils in both academic and co-curricular experience. We believe that what sets us apart is the significant pastoral benefits that come from living within our full boarding community. Life at Marlborough offers young people a rare opportunity to develop deep and enduring bonds with their peer group and those who care for them.
Key support for bursary pupils includes, but is not limited to:
- daily contact with their Housemaster or Housemistress, the primary pastoral supporters of all pupils;
- regular and ongoing support from their academic tutor and teachers with whom they have contact in house, in lessons and in co-curricular activities;
- support from a pupil Bursary Mentor, an established member of the pupil body who has experienced the same journey;
- access to an Old Marlburian (former pupil) mentor in the Sixth Form who will support them as they make important decisions about life after leaving the College.
