Sevenoaks School Foundation raises funds to enable Sevenoaks School to provide a broad and integrated world-class education, an inspiring campus, and financial support to those who need it most.

A Sevenoaks education is a unique experience. A vibrant and diverse mix of talented students are taught by passionate individuals who empower them with the skills to create a better and more peaceful world.

The challenges of our century demand leaders who embody resilience, fairness, responsibility, solidarity, and humility. To cultivate these future leaders, we must nurture today's curious minds, equipping them with the knowledge to think big and think differently.

Sevenoaks School has a proud history of providing financial aid to students from all backgrounds. Currently, 74 pupils benefit from this support, with additional funding available for uniforms, trips, and other essentials.

We are committed to ensuring that equity, diversity and inclusion continue to be at the heart of our culture and community. It is a key priority for the school to significantly increase our offer of financially assisted bursaries as we approach our 600th anniversary in 2032.

Our Headmaster, Jesse Elzinga, speaks with profound gratitude about the support he received during his formative years, which opened access to Harvard and Oxford, otherwise financially out of reach for his family. He is convinced of the transformative power of education, noting that, for him, it opened doors that he didn’t even know existed.

Being part of an inclusive community enriches everyone’s learning and appreciation for the true value of diversity. At Sevenoaks School, our students learn to live, work and empathise with people from a wide variety of backgrounds.

Your support helps us unlock the potential of students who can only join our school with the aid of financial assistance.
