Year 9 Scholarships
We offer Academic, Art, Design Technology and Engineering, Drama, Music, and Sports (Cowdrey) Scholarships. Applications are open to boys entering Year 9. To be eligible, applicants must already hold an Unconditional Offer of a place at the School for 2027 entry before undertaking a scholarship assessment in Year 8. Candidates are welcome to apply for more than one scholarship.
Those who do not require, or are not eligible for financial support, a one-off payment of £2,000 will be made in recognition of their achievement. This amount will be deducted from the first term’s fees.
Please note that scholarship applications will open on Thursday 3 September.
Junior Foundation Scholarship
The Junior Foundation Scholarship is awarded in Year 6 to bright and talented boys, typically (but not exclusively) those studying at state primary schools. Up to 10 such awards are made each year, enabling boys whose financial circumstances would otherwise prevent an application to Tonbridge being able to attend.
Further details about the Junior Foundation Scholarships is available here.
Sixth Form Scholarships
Our Sixth Form Scholarship Programme celebrates exceptional talent within academic, music and sporting domains and has been designed to attract, nurture and support new Sixth Form students in their areas of strength.
All Sixth Form Scholarships can be held in conjunction with means-tested financial support.
Lower Sixth Honorary Academic Scholarships
These are awarded to students who are not already School scholars but who have achieved exceptional results in their GCSEs. They receive an honorarium of £100.
