AWARD OF IMMANUEL JAKOBOVITS SCHOLARSHIPS


Parents completing the Senior School Application Form should indicate whether they wish their son or daughter to be considered for an Immanuel Jakobovits Scholarship. Up to 10 scholarships will be offered to the value of 100% of tuition fees, re-awarded throughout the recipient’s school career, subject to satisfactory effort and behaviour.

All candidates for admission will sit the College’s one-hour entrance examinations in English and Mathematics on Monday 9th January 2012. The College invites every candidate to an entrance interview and because of the numbers involved these interviews take place between the receipt of application forms and mid-February 2012. The entrance interview, which some candidates will attend before the entrance examination day, requires candidates to talk about their interests and to bring with them their current school exercise books and files and any items which reflect their interests.   

Candidates who perform exceptionally strongly in the English and Mathematics examination will be invited to an additional interview, the scholarship interview. The scholarship interview will focus exclusively on the candidate’s understanding of and response to a number of texts.
 

Bursaries

Parents of candidates to whom a scholarship is not offered may apply for a means-tested bursary. It is intended to award up to three bursaries to a maximum of full fees.

IMMANUEL COLLEGE MUSIC SCHOLARSHIPS

Music Scholarships are available annually to new Year 7 entrants to the School. Each Scholarship is worth £2000 annually. Music Scholarships will also provide free tuition in the candidate’s principal instrument throughout his or her time at Immanuel. Scholarships will be re-awarded annually subject to satisfactory effort and behaviour. The minimum standard of the candidate’s main instrument should be Associated Board Grade 4 or equivalent. Knowledge of a second instrument and/or theory of music is advantageous, but at this age potential is often as important as achievement.

The Director of Music will be pleased to meet interested parents to tell them more about the Music Scholarships and arrange to hear prospective Scholars play in an informal manner at any time in the College year. Appointments may be made and further details obtained from the School Office (020 8950 0604). Parents who wish their child to be considered for a Music Scholarship should indicate their interest in Section 5 of the application form.

IMMANUEL COLLEGE ART EXHIBITIONS

Art Scholarships are available annually to new Year 7 entrants to the School. Each Scholarship is worth £2000 annually. Scholarships will be re-awarded annually subject to satisfactory effort and behaviour. To qualify for an Art Scholarship, candidates must demonstrate enthusiasm for Art, developed drawing ability and creativity in handling materials. Candidates for Art Scholarships are invited to bring portfolios of work undertaken in the last few years to an interview with the Head of Art. This should contain artwork from both in and out of school, as well as any projects carried out within school. The Head of Art will be looking at the candidate’ potential rather than expecting highly finished work. Parents who wish their child to be considered for an Art Scholarship should indicate their interest in Section 5 of the application form.
