At Tintern Grammar are proud to offer Scholarship opportunities to support attendance at the School by young people who might otherwise not have the option to attend Tintern.

A Scholarship to Tintern opens up diverse and challenging opportunities for the holder and provides breadth and depth to their education and also carries with it a duty to contribute and lead within the Tintern community.

The Scholarship holders bring an enormous amount to our community. This can be in academic leadership, in social justice and service, in broader leadership, and in their role modeling of strong character, their appetite for learning and improvement, and their respect, care, and kindness towards others.

The school welcome applications for our 2025 scholarships from young women and men who share the aspiration to develop and amplify these important elements of personal and community character. Please visit this website in July 2023 to apply.
