Outstanding Talent Awards

Supporting Excellence. Expanding Opportunity.

Thanks to the generous endowment from His Excellency Dr Khalid bin Mohammed Al Attiyah, President of the Glenalmond Schools Group, we are thrilled to be launching up to 40 new awards for exceptional talent.

The awards offer up to 100% fee remission and are available to new applicants for day and boarding places from September 2025 onwards.

Awards will be allocated across every area of College life, spanning different year groups, to ensure a balance of junior and senior entries.

These individual categories include but are not limited to:

Academic, Art & Design Technology, Drama, Golf, Hockey, Music including Piping, Outdoor Learning, Rugby, Tennis, Cricket, and Shooting.

If you are interested in being part of a close-knit community where every child matters and we work together to make the world a better place, we would love to hear from you.
