Sixth Form Academic Scholarships
At St Bede’s, in order to empower Manchester’s best and brightest students, we offer an academic scholarship scheme based on students’ GCSE results.
Academic Scholarships
The College is pleased to extend Academic Scholarships to students securing Grade 9 in a minimum of three GCSE subjects, accompanied by at least five additional GCSEs at Grade 6 and above.
A 30% fee reduction is granted for three Grade 9s, with an extra 10% for each additional Grade 9. Scholarships will be automatically granted upon receipt of GCSE grades.
The College expects students to conform to our high expectations and standards of behaviour, embrace the Catholic ethos of our College, and maintain an excellent attitude to academic work.
To apply for a Scholarship please contact admissions@sbcm.co.uk.
Apply for a bursary
Parents who wish to apply for financial assistance must fill out a bursary application form and be submitted at the same time as the College application. The bursary application and guidance notes are available from Our Admissions Team via email. To apply for a Bursary contact admissions@sbcm.co.uk.
Applications for bursaries received after offer letters have been sent out will not be considered until next academic year.
