Hi all,
I'm new here so please be gentle.
Our DD was granted a bursary last year for our local prep school.
However, since she started the school and we started paying the fees we realised that the current level of bursary is simply not enough in our circumstances.
The school is small and there isn't a bursar to discuss this issue with, I have to go directly to HM who then brings it forward to the governors who in turn make the decision.
When we originally spoke to HM re obtaining the bursary she was very supportive and open minded.
I'm just completely unsure how to approach her this year in order to get the bursary increase, I've never done this sort of thing before and feel very nervous and quite embarrassed.
I have to mention that DD is exceeding all expectations and is top of the class in most subjects, her class teacher has advised us that should she continue at the same level we will be looking at applying for scholarships in the future.
Any help from experienced bursary applicants would be gladly received.
