You don't have to be an all-rounder, but it's a good start...

Glasgow Academy is a great place to develop your sporting, musical, artistic or other talents.  We do everything we can to ensure that able children can get an Academy education - and that can include paying their fees!

Just to be clear, Bursaries are not just for academic high-fliers.  Many who receive help with fees are excellent games players, musicians and artists.  And some don't excel in any particular field but show real potential.

The Academy is able to offer free places and help with fees only through the generosity of its former pupils, parents and friends. Bursaries are means-tested according to the family income and financial position of each applicant.

Help with fees (10-100%) may be awarded at entry to P7 and to all years in the Senior School, as well as to existing pupils in P7 and in the Senior School in cases of demonstrable financial need.

Families applying for help with fees will be asked to supply information about their financial circumstances. By way of guidance, we are unlikely to be able to help parents whose combined income currently exceeds £55,000 if one child is to be educated or £65,000 if two children require financial assistance.

In order to ensure fairness and enable the school to prioritise help, given limited funds, bursary applications should be submitted prior to admission or - for existing pupils - by mid-May each year.
