Bursary Appeal 2021

The Bursary Appeal Fund

We are proud of our history and remain committed to increasing the financial support available for talented boys who might not otherwise be able to access a Dulwich education. We currently provide financial support in the form of scholarships and means-tested bursaries to 35% of pupils in the senior school. In 2019-20 the College spent £4.15 million on bursary support - a 250% increase since 2012. We focus on families who need substantial bursary support - the majority of awards cover more than 75% of fees. Bursaries are funded through a combination of the generosity of benefactors to the College’s Bursary Appeal Fund and our own financial resources, including distributions from the Dulwich Estate and income generated through our educational partnership with Dulwich College International. As we look ahead to the future of the College and what this might mean for the sustainability of bursaries, we hope to build further our Bursary Appeal Fund, the income from which will continue to fund these places in perpetuity.

“I found at Dulwich there was no hierarchy. There was no sense of ‘I am better than you’. There was a genuine respect for other people, and for what others could be or do.” Professor Andrew Tomkins OBE OA (1954-61) Dulwich Experiment award holder
