At Pownall Hall School, we are committed to recognising potential, nurturing talent, and providing exceptional opportunities for pupils who show promise academically or in areas such as sport, music or the arts.
Our Scholarships Programme offers selected pupils enhanced opportunities designed to stretch, challenge and develop their abilities, supporting them to excel and grow with confidence.
The programme is tailored for families seeking a structured, highly supportive route through the 11+, providing the academic ambition, personalised guidance and enrichment required to thrive throughout this process.
We are delighted to invite applications for our Form 4 Academic Scholarship, created to support high-achieving children as they enter a crucial stage in their schooling and begin their journey towards the 11+ process for senior school entry.
This scholarship is ideal for families seeking:
Each candidate will attend two full school days with the Form 4 class they would be joining.
Day 1: In-class participation, social integration with peers and academic assessments (withdrawn briefly from the class)
Day 2: A normal school day, opportunities to experience specialist subjects, a chance to get to know the class and school routines
This allows us to see each child comfortably, naturally and holistically.
Parents will receive the outcome privately on or before Friday 16th January.
Our 11+ pathway is widely regarded as the strongest in the area. Scholarship pupils receive access to a full support programme, tailored to the individual child and to the senior schools being applied for, including:
Exam technique and question-style familiarity
Weekly targeted verbal and non-verbal reasoning practice
Online exam platforms (tailored to the specific senior schools applied for)
One-to-one and small group interview preparation
Mock exams
Structured, personalised guidance for parents throughout the process
The first step is to book a private tour with the Headmaster. The best way to understand what makes Pownall Hall School so special is to visit during a normal school day. You’ll experience our warm community, small classes, specialist teachers and the nurturing environment we are so proud of.
We look forward to welcoming you to Pownall Hall School.
