Candidates in Year 2 at state primary schools are encouraged to apply for a 7+ Bursary. There is one place available each September for a child to join Eaton House The Manor Girls’ School in Year 3. Girls remain at the school until Year 6.

The bursaries are valid for the whole of the child’s time at school, as long as the family continues to meet the financial criteria associated with the bursary scheme. As a guide, a 100% bursary is most likely to be awarded to a family with a total household income of £42,500 or less, whose only major asset is their home.

A bursary is worth 100% of school fees, which include lunches, stationery and day trips. Residential trips are also included, as is support for uniform and equipment costs.

To be eligible for an award, parents and children must be legally resident in the United Kingdom for the duration of the award and live within 10 miles (as the crow flies) of the School. Awards are made against the following criteria.

The child’s performance at assessment day:

•Positive reference from their current primary school

•Positive performance in interview with the Head of the school they are applying to

•Strong performance in 7+ examinations (Maths, English and standardised cognitive ability assessment)

Attention will be given to the academic assessment results of each applicant, with consideration given to potential as well as actual achievement. The pupil must be deemed by the Head to be likely to make sound academic progress following admission and benefit from participation in the wider life of the school.

The family’s financial and other circumstances:

•Meeting the financial criteria associated with the bursary scheme

•Other mitigating factors may also be considered, including individual family and individual health circumstances

Eaton House The Manor Girls’ School is an outstanding independent school and nursery, set opposite the leafy green stretches of Clapham Common. The school offers a balanced, highly academic education to girls between the ages of 2 and 11, and is non-selective at its reception entry point. A philosophy of ‘the sky-is-the-limit learning’ allows each girl to reach her fullest potential, supported by specialist subject teaching and an exceptional pastoral network. A stimulating classroom environment promotes intellectual curiosity and the girls prize both academic exploration and risk-taking highly. Consequently, pupils leave for a range of top secondary schools, including St Paul’s Girls’ School, JAGS, Alleyn’s and Wycombe Abbey. In 2024, the girls received an outstanding 31 scholarships across Academics, Sport, Drama, Music and Art.

Beyond an excellent core curriculum of literacy and numeracy, an equal emphasis is given to the arts and STEM subjects. Each girl is encouraged to pursue her interests through an increasingly co-curricular attitude to learning and a sophisticated range of extracurricular activities. The wellbeing of the girls is of paramount importance to all staff. The House system, ‘Big Sister’ scheme, excellent form teachers and visible senior management team combine to ensure that each girl feels supported in her learning. A Head of Wellbeing and school nurse are on hand to support all parents and pupils whenever a concern is raised. Mrs Claire Fildes, the Head Teacher says, ‘When the girls really feel that they’re cared for and happy in their learning environment, I really believe that the learning falls into place.’ (The Good Schools Guide, 2024).

Eaton House The Manor Girls’ School is located on the same extensive premises as Eaton House The Manor Boys’ School, making it the ideal place for siblings to enjoy the benefits of a single-sex education on one site. In 2022, the ISI reported both Eaton House the Manor schools as ‘Excellent’, with ‘diversity and inclusion being openly celebrated’.

Entrance procedure. Entrance to our nursery and reception is non-selective. Registration is accepted from birth and early application is advised. We welcome girls to our nursery in the September following their second birthday. The majority of our nursery pupils go on to attend Reception, where they are joined by those who register for 4+ entry.

From Years 1 to 6, children registered to join Eaton House The Manor Girls’ School after the initial reception entry point will be invited to visit the school for an admissions assessment before a place can be offered (subject to availability). Prospective pupils are asked to complete a formal 8+ assessment for external entry into Year 4.
