Today the Foundation\u2019s focus rests solely with offering Foundationer bursaries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The money has been raised by a variety of means: the Foundation Christmas Fair, fundraising balls, tennis tournaments, grant-making bodies, sponsorship, as well as donations and legacies by individual donors. In addition, parents contribute \u00a380 per term per child to the Foundation \u2013 last term, two-thirds took part in this scheme.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-142 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.cranleigh.org\/foundationweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/01\/War-Memorial_104433-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.cranleigh.org\/foundationweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/01\/War-Memorial_104433-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blogs.cranleigh.org\/foundationweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/01\/War-Memorial_104433-167x250.jpg 167w, https:\/\/blogs.cranleigh.org\/foundationweek\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/01\/War-Memorial_104433-267x266.jpg 267w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>3. <a id=\"WhatisaFoundationerplaceatCranleigh\"><\/a><strong>What is a Foundationer place at Cranleigh?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Foundationer places are 100\/110%-funded places for children who have lost the support of one or both parents through exceptional or tragic circumstances. The Foundationer bursary covers fees and related expenses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In addition to receiving direct applications from the public, we work with nominating organisations, such as Royal National Children\u2019s Springboard Foundation, to identify children who would benefit from such an opportunity. We also liaise with local schools to promote Foundationer places.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The identity of our Foundationers is confidential and only shared with those staff who need to know so that they can maximise the benefit of a Cranleigh education for the Foundationer, e.g. the Headmaster, the Director of Finance, the Foundationer\u2019s Housemistress\/master.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In this academic year (2021-22) there are six Foundationers. Since welcoming the first Foundationer in 2011, there have been 13 Foundationers at Cranleigh, <a><span class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\">six <\/span><\/a>of whom have gone on to study at higher education institutions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>4. <a id=\"WhataretheeligibilitycriteriaforaFoundationerplace\"><\/a><strong>What are the eligibility criteria for a Foundationer place?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cranleigh.org\/admissions\/foundationers\/\">this link<\/a> to see the criteria for a Foundationer place.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>5. <a id=\"HowareFoundationerplacesfunded\"><\/a><strong>How are Foundationer places funded?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Currently the Foundationer places are funded by both the Foundation and the School. Following a review by the governing body, the School wishes to set up a dedicated fund for Foundationer places to separate their costs from the School\u2019s day-to-day business. In addition, some Foundationer places are funded by individual charities, e.g. Royal Springboard.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>6. <a id=\"Howcanmygiftmakeadifference\"><\/a><strong>How can my gift make a difference?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Gifts of all sizes made a difference by providing funds that can be spent right away on the most pressing needs of the area you supported. The Cranleigh Foundation relies on your gifts because the school fees do not cover the entire cost of a Foundationer&#8217;s education.
