Lancing College has launched its first Week of Giving, an online campaign to support our Lancing Foundationers – Bursaries that change lives.
Bursaries have always been a part of the College’s ethos since its founding in 1848, and this campaign highlights the College’s continuing commitment today in making our Foundationers an absolute priority. There has never been a more critical time for a collective effort focused on young people and their education.
Since the launch of the campaign in November 2017, we have celebrated many successes:
- This term we have 14 pupils in our Foundationers community, the largest number we have ever had with pupils across all year groups in the College
- We have four Foundationers undergraduates at Leeds, Cambridge and two at Imperial College, making a total of 18 in the programme
- We have raised over 94% of our first stage £3m target, two years ahead of schedule, and intend to recruit another seven pupils to reach our target of 25 by 2022
- We are working with three children’s charities to find the most deserving pupils: EastSide Young Leaders’ Academy, Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation and Buttle UK
- Our pastoral care has been acknowledged by our partners as outstanding.
