Bursaries at the Heart of Fundraising


When St James was founded in 1975, it was started with the support and generosity of teachers, parents and friends, helping the schools grow and flourish.

50 years on, that philanthropic spirit remains, as does the wish for the schools to be open to any child who would benefit from a St James education.

St James has a long history of providing bursaries which both enrich the school community and give children access to a high-quality education.

As we celebrate our 50th Birthday and look towards the future, we want to put bursaries at the heart of our fundraising.

We are hugely grateful for all support to the Bursary Fund we receive from the St James community.

“Receiving the bursary has been life-changing for our family. It’s given our daughter opportunities she never would have been able to have without it. It’s been a great privilege to receive and is something our family will never forget.” – Parent of a current bursary holder


“The impact of bursaries are huge, beyond their financial support, they give children a chance to overcome what is often beyond their control with dignity and to resume education with emotional stability and a greater sense of maturity” – Former bursary holder


“The bursary award given to my daughter has positively changed the trajectory of her whole life and it is such a privilege to see her flourishing in such a vibrant and welcoming school. We are so very grateful to everybody who has helped this to be possible and the bursary award that enables her to attend this wonderful school means so very much to both of us.” – Parent of a current bursary holder
