Truro School scholarships are awarded in recognition of a pupil’s commitment, ability and talent. Scholarships are typically honorary and awarded in the form of further enhanced educational opportunities for the scholars themselves at the end of the spring term. We also offer a small number of Chorister, Fencing and Sixth Form Diploma Scholarships which carry a fee remission. Families needing financial support or assistance are invited to apply for a means-tested bursary award. Bursary awards can range from 5% to 100% of fees depending on assessed need. Each application is reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
