13+ Day

Foundation Awards offer funded places for Year 7 and 8 at Bilton Grange and, conditional on further assessment, continuation to Rugby School from Year 9.

If you live locally, your child currently attends a local primary school and your financial circumstances are assessed by Rugby School as being eligible for significant means-tested bursary support, then your child can be considered for entry to Year 7 at Bilton Grange Preparatory School through a Foundation Award

FOUNDATION AWARD ENTRY TO BILTON GRANGE 2023 CONTINUING TO RUGBY SCHOOL IN 2025

Applications should be made directly to Bilton Grange through admissions@biltongrange.co.uk

If your child currently attends a local prep school and you wish them to be considered for day entry in Year 9 then we welcome applications during their Year 6 and may offer conditional places where we feel very confident that the child will be well-suited to life as a day student at Rugby School.

The assessment process will comprise:

• A reference which we will request from the current school
• Interviews based on questionnaire
• We will also ask to see their recent Maths and English exercise books as well as any a piece of work completed during Year 6 which they are proud to show.
