Receiving an award carries a level of prestige but also a degree of expectation. Scholars will be expected to act as role models in their fields of interest, and – as they move into their senior years – to begin to deliver on their potential by taking on positions of leadership.
We have developed a programme of extension activities and opportunities appropriate to particular areas of talent. Music and Drama scholars, for example, attend regular masterclasses with visiting professionals, as well as perform in termly scholars’ recitals and College productions.
Our Sports scholars access a dedicated ‘Talented and Gifted’ programme, with specialist coaching and partnerships with professional clubs.
