Welcome to the Wells Cathedral School Foundation

Wells Cathedral School has always been an inclusive place to live and learn, providing skills that enable young people to grow their talents and fulfil their potential. For many years, the School’s means-tested bursary programme, funded in part by the generosity of the Wellensian community, has enabled children from all backgrounds to study at Wells.

But the pot we have to fund bursaries is not enough to help all the children who need financial support to achieve their potential in our School. With your help we can ensure no one turns down a place at Wells because of their family’s circumstances.

Will you help double the number of significant bursaries offered to brilliant young people?

“Our mission is simple: to make it possible for more children who could flourish at Wells to come to school here.”
