Changing lives through bursaries
As a former Direct Grant Grammar School, we have always been proud to serve children and families in Bristol, and we have, throughout our long history, contributed positively to social mobility for countless children who have gone on to make their mark on the world.
As we approach the 500th anniversary of our Royal Charter in 2032, we encourage our wider community to support our drive for widening access. We have a strong culture of giving at our school. It was in this way that Bristol Grammar School was founded, it was in this way that most of our great buildings and facilities were created and it is in this way that we will change the lives of children who will become our future leaders of change; making a difference for Bristol and the for the world beyond.
We are delighted to share our brochure launching the new 500 Campaign: changing lives through bursaries at BGS.
Since the abolition of the Assisted Places Scheme in 1997, we have always supported bright and able children through means-tested bursaries. Our Mission is to provide an exceptional education for all those who might benefit, regardless of background and financial means and this sits at the heart of everything we do here at BGS.
