Testimonials

See what our students say

“I joined Bishopshalt in Year 11 and was welcomed immediately. The challenge here pushed me beyond the core curriculum, and the support for my Cambridge application – from test prep to mock interviews – was outstanding. Thanks to this, I’ve secured a place to study Computer Science at Cambridge. If you’re ambitious, Bishopshalt will give you the platform to succeed.”
Year 13 Student, Cambridge Offer-Holder for Computer Science
“Leading a student society at Bishopshalt helped me find my voice – now I’m helping younger students find theirs. From running clubs to mentoring, coaching and supporting lessons, we’re trusted to lead. The experiences I gained led to a Gold SSAT Leadership Award, thanks to the school’s support. Bishopshalt gives you the platform to lead and the confidence to thrive.”
Year 13 Student, Literature Society President and Student Leader
“Receiving a Bishopshalt Scholarship gave me both the confidence and the opportunity to invest in a microscope and attend a medical summer school. As a member of the Medical Society, I was fully supported throughout my medicine application journey – from UCAT tuition, paid access to Medify and weekly participation in the In2MedSchool programme, to hands-on experience using a surgical suture kit.”
Year 13 Student, Future Medic and Bishopshalt Scholar
