Gordon Foundation

But what is it exactly that The Gordon Foundation does? Essentially, the state provides the teaching resources while The Gordon Foundation, through charging fees, provides the boarding and the extended day activities which offer excellent value for money.The Gordon Foundation is proud to offer continued support and commitment to fulfilling the original aims for which the school was set up, with children of all abilities and backgrounds being catered for, including the most disadvantaged.The resources of the Gordon Foundation are very limited indeed and the income from its investments is used to provide bursaries for those children in need, which otherwise may not have been possible where a sudden unexpected change in family circumstances has occurred. These bursaries also ensure that continuity is maintained within family units either as a day or weekly boarder, keeping General Gordon’s philanthropic values alive. Bursary support is not dependent on scholastic merit but are means tested. In other words, bursaries are reviewed annually and awarded according to need and vary in size according to individual circumstances.
