EDUCATION THE KEY TO YOUR FUTURE AT KENT COLLEGE, CANTERBURY REALISING THE POTENTIAL WITHIN YOUNG PEOPLE IS SOMETHING THAT IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT AT KENT COLLEGE. SUCCEED WITH A KC SCHOLARSHIP Since its foundation, the school has always excelled in the academic, musical and sporting spheres. We believe passionately that the development of individual talents unlocks student potential, and the deeper development of these skills enables students to develop the qualities that will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives. Our scholarship program allows us to nurture those who already have talents in particular areas. Becoming a scholar brings with it a responsibility to work hard in order to make the absolute most of what you have been given. Scholarships are a valuable way of developing positive qualities in young people through the building of expertise. These qualities include competence, confidence and creativity. The result is character and connection, reflecting positive bonds with others and resulting in successful relationships within the school, family and community. Scholarships are available for entrants in Year 7 (age 11+), Year 9 (age 13+) or Year 12 (age16+) in the following areas: academic, art, design, drama, music, and sport as well as for the International Baccalaureate course within the sixth form BURSARY OPPORTUNITIES The opportunities that Kent College affords its students are special and it is absolutely right that we make that accessible to as many people as we can. The idea of doing all the good that you can by helping everyone that you can is something that is interwoven into the history of the school. We have a system of bursary support based around means testing, which parents may apply for in order to give their sons and daughters the chance to come to KC. So whether your child dreams of being an England hockey player or performing with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, Kent College can help to provide the key to their future. We are now accepting applications for September 2021 entry, so if you feel your child would benefit from the challenge and wrap around support we provide at KC then a scholarship or bursary could be the perfect opportunity to develop and nurture their talent.
