Financial Support available during your educational journey 

Gillingham School offers a range of scholarships and bursaries to support students continuing their studies beyond GCSE through Sixth Form and progressing to university, college, or other higher education institutions. These funds can help with the costs of education, including university fees, accommodation, transport, maintenance, books, and specialist equipment. Several of these awards have been established through the generosity of former staff, students, and supporters of the school, creating a lasting legacy that helps future generations follow similar pathways, including careers in fields such as Medicine, Dentistry, and Nursing.
