Bursaries provide partial remission of school tuition fees for students who have the potential to contribute to School life but who may not otherwise be in a position to attend a private school due to the family’s financial circumstances.

Scholarships and bursaries are awarded for three key principles:

• Scholarships support students of high ability to attend Esperance Anglican Community School.
• Scholarships are one of the ways in which the School affirms the high value it places on outstanding academic ability.
• Bursaries make it possible for students to attend the School when financial circumstances of the family would otherwise preclude them, and so promote our philosophy of inclusion.

• Scholarships and bursaries are reviewed annually to ensure students are maintaining satisfactory academic progress, high standards of citizenship and participation within the life of the School.
• Students not maintaining the expected minimum standards will have their scholarship or bursary modified or cancelled.
• The school awards a small number of scholarships and bursaries each year at the discretion of the Principal.
• Not all advertised scholarships or bursaries may be awarded in an any year.
• School Bursaries will be assessed individually based on the individual family’s financial circumstances and the student’s capacity to contribute to the life of the School.

Scholarship applications for 2025 are now closed.
