The Sherwood Scholarship

Why should a highly intelligent boy from the East Midlands choose Harrow School?

  • Harrow is a full boarding, all boys school in Northwest London which takes boys from age 13-18. 
  • Our pupils achieve excellent exam results and also benefit from a wide range of extra-curricular activities which enhance their academic studies.
  • Harrow offers a wealth of opportunity for boys to try new things and take risks within the protection of a close and supportive community where there is so much more time for them to do sport, music, drama, art and other activities outside the classroom.
  • Most Harrovians go on to Oxford, Cambridge and other top universities, to prestigious Music conservatoires or to the top Art schools.
  • Many of our sportsmen compete at county and national level, and win national or regional schools competitions in a wide range of sports.

About the Scholarship

The Sherwood Scholarship has been set up to pay for boys from the East Midlands to come to Harrow School.

The Scholarship can cover up to the full cost of the fees, depending on parental financial circumstances. Applicants must live in Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire or Leicestershire.

"Being educated at Harrow means not only getting first-rate academic teaching, but an amazing opportunity to try and excel in things outside the classroom, make life-long friends and prepare yourself for the world outside, all of which are aided by the advantages of full-time boarding." – A current pupil

Gifted boys who win a Sherwood Scholarship to Harrow School will receive a fantastic education at one of the top independent schools in the world. So if you are highly intelligent, enthusiastic, energetic and want to excel academically as well as outside the classroom, and if you are eager to make the most of boarding life and our excellent facilities, then apply for a means-tested Sherwood Scholarship from age 13 or 16.
