Scholarships reward distinctive academic ability or special talent in Art, Drama, Music, Sports and Design Engineering Technology. ‘Oundle Scholarships’ are also offered to reward talented candidates who have a genuine interest and ability in two or more of our scholarship disciplines
All scholarships are won in open competition and are awarded solely on merit. Once at Oundle, Scholars can expect to access further opportunity and support in their discipline to help them make the most of their talents.
Thank you for visiting our feeder school scholarship portal. Please complete the relevant electronic entry form for each of your scholarship applicants and email completed submissions to assessments@oundleschool.org.uk. If a pupil is applying for more than one scholarship discipline you will need to complete a separate entry for each. Each scholarship discipline tab below includes the relevant electronic entry form, as well as a brochure outlining what we are looking for in Scholars and what they can look forward to in return.
