Christ's Hospital is
a remarkable school;
it is the UK's leading
charitable school and
largest bursary charity. The

reduced cost places to over 630 of
its 900 pupils each year - this is more

Through first-class education and exceptional
pastoral support, Christ's Hospital provides
each pupil with stability, and the opportunity
to thrive and fulfil their potential. Leavers take with
them the confidence and resilience they will need to
achieve success at university and beyond, and to make
a meaningful contribution to society.
