Potential worth noticing
Scholarships recognise pupils who show real talent and promise, alongside the enthusiasm to make a positive contribution to life at Hollygirt.
We look beyond polished performance or a perfect result. We value curiosity, commitment and creativity, as well as the courage to try new things, learn from setbacks and keep improving. We’re looking for pupils who are excited by their potential and ready to make the most of every opportunity.
Scholarships and Scholarship Day
Academic Scholarships
Prospective Year 7 pupils are invited to participate in our Academic Scholarship Testing Day, designed to recognise and celebrate exceptional academic potential. The assessments explore a child’s ability to think critically and logically, solve problems, and apply both verbal and non‑verbal reasoning skills.
Creative Scholarships
Alongside our academic awards, we are proud to offer Creative Scholarships for pupils who show passion, imagination, and emerging talent within creative or expressive disciplines. These scholarships celebrate pupils who bring energy and originality to areas such as:
- Art– for pupils who demonstrate visual creativity, skill and artistic curiosity.
- Performing Arts– recognising confident, expressive performers with a love of drama.
- Music– celebrating musicality, commitment, and developing technical skill.
- Food Technology– for inventive young cooks with flair, creativity, and a passion for food.
- Sport– supporting pupils who show strong athletic ability, teamwork, and drive in a wide range of sporting pursuits, including the more unusual!
Our Creative Scholarships aim to nurture talent, inspire confidence, and provide tailored opportunities for young people to flourish as they begin their senior school journey.
