A number of means-tested SES Scholarships (for 2019 entry) will be awarded each year to students entering Haileybury at Year 7 whose annual family income is below $80,000. These scholarships are awarded to students for entry into Year 7 at our Middle Schools at Berwick, Brighton, City or Keysborough (Newlands), and are awarded on the basis of school reports, NAPLAN results, school reference and interview.
SES Scholarships are tenable until the student has completed Year 12 for as long as the means test is satisfied. If family income rises above $80,000 in any financial year, the scholarship for the following year may be reduced at the discretion of the School.
The value of the SES Scholarship is determined by the school according to its assessment of the family's ability to pay, and may be as much as 90% of the school's tuition fee. The Haileybury entrance fee is waived, however the administrative charge and any levies are still payable.
