The Charter Awards Campaign is our mission to widen access to King’s to more talented and motivated pupils from every background by providing an additional 50 fully funded bursary places at the school, forever.
One year ago today, we officially launched at Mansion House and we have been overwhelmed by the engagement and support of our OKS, current and past parents and friends of the school. Your support is truly a testament to the power of our community and gives us confidence in this endeavour as we strive forward. Thank you!
Due to your generosity, we have been able to welcome another 3 Charter Award Holders to Shell this September, bringing our total number to 4. Your donations have also raised the Charter Awards Endowment, which funds these life-changing bursaries, to £6M, meaning that we have already achieved over 70% of our Phase 1 target (2023 – 2026).
If would like to find out more about the Awards, you can do so via our short film or our case for support. You can also donate online or by reaching out to Jenny Grant, Director of Development, j.grant@kings-school.co.uk, 01227 595623. Thank you.
‘I, like many of you, am deeply proud of King's, and acknowledge the very special contribution King's played to my school years. I hope we can offer this opportunity to others who might not have had the chances we did, and in doing so, benefit not just those children, but build a stronger King’s community.’ Kate Fall (WL 1983-85), Founding Chair, Charter Awards Campaign Group.
