“We attract students from right across the region, so it is fitting that we should also reward those coming to us from farther afield. I’m sure the money will be put to good use to help support their education or extra-curricular activities while at Collyer’s.”

Libby, one of the bursary recipients, said: “I just want to thank all the support Warden Park gave me throughout my time there, and all the help I got from my family whilst preparing for my GCSEs. I am looking forward to spending the next two years at Collyer’s.”

Ex-Forest pupil Joeseph Bensusan said: “I am honoured to be receiving this bursary from Collyer’s and would like to thank the college for their recognition of my hard work, especially over the last few challenging years. I would also like to thank those who helped me achieve my GCSE results at The Forest School.”

Roseanna, who previously attended Millais, said: “Thank you to all the teachers who worked hard during the lockdowns to keep our learning going, and to my family and friends who kept me entertained while we were stuck at home. I’m very happy to have achieved the GCSE grades that I did and to have been awarded a bursary by Collyer’s.”

Jennifer, from Tanbridge House School, said: “I am incredibly grateful to Tanbridge House School for the tremendous support they provided over my five years there. During lockdown in particular, the encouragement and positivity of my teachers enabled me to achieve the best results I could, despite the difficult circumstances.”

Deputy principal Steve Martell told the students: “I’m confident that your individual success stories can continue into advanced level and beyond. You’ve all made a great start to life at Collyer’s!”
