King Edward's is an independent school, and that means that it is a fee-paying school. However, one of the school's most important aims is to do all it can to provide education for able pupils, whatever the financial circumstances of the pupils' family. The school, therefore, provides two different kinds of financial support, Scholarships and means-tested Assisted Places. About 30% of pupils are given financial support through these schemes and 10% have free places.

Any parent who would like to know more about scholarships or Assisted Places should contact Mrs Nicole Phillips, the school's Admissions and Marketing Co-ordinator on admissions@kes.org.uk or 0121 415 6056.
