 Whitgift School is a distinctive place in many ways, and particularly in its diversity. One dimension of its richness is socio-economic: we are passionate about continuing that for the sake of our community, the individuals within it, and those that aspire to be part it. Every little helps!

They have both flourished, in different ways, under the care of exceptional teachers and they will both leave with the best friends and memories that will last a lifetime.

 Whitgift is a wonderful school and we firmly believe that the Bursary programme is fundamental to what makes it so special. We hope that this Giving Day will provide opportunities for boys to have the experience that our son is so fortunate to have.
