THE ARBOR SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME, Ignite Scholars, offers scholarships up to 75% of annual fees for fixed periods (usually two years). Candidates view the candidate pack and can apply via a designated form. The scholarship criteria cover four dimensions: Cognition (Head), Emotion (Heart), Action (Hands) and Connection (Spirit). Cognition requires strong cognitive indicators such as CAT4 scores (128+) or PT assessments (8–9) and a strong school report with high attendance. Emotion focuses on self-awareness, empathy, and social understanding. Action involves engagement in activities beyond the classroom, including service and environmental projects. Connection assesses the student's sense of responsibility to others and the world. The Arbor Scholarship Monitoring System reviews scholars termly with formal and informal assessments and mentor feedback. The Arbor Extend Programme adds pathways such as Engineering BTEC, Further Maths and additional GCSE/A Levels. Applicants should view the candidate pack and apply for consideration. The scholarship programme is complemented by other details and support as described. (Citations: Ignite Scholars details; candidate pack and apply link; monitoring and Extend programme.)
