Support Us | Elizabeth College

Our development plans focus on enhancing the education of current and future generations of Elizabeth College students, ensuring they can make the most of their potential and leave us well-equipped to contribute to society.

Unlike some other schools, we do not have large capital reserves or a big endowment that we can rely on to fund major new initiatives. Our core income streams such as school fees continue to fund our running costs and the maintenance of existing buildings and facilities, but are not sufficient to fund major capital projects.

We do not wish to increase the level of our fees any more than is absolutely necessary as this would put Elizabeth College beyond the reach of increasing numbers of families at a time when one of our core objectives is to provide more opportunities for pupils from diverse backgrounds.

Approximately every five years the Elizabeth College Foundation run an appeal to encourage donations from OEs, past and present parents and others who would like to support the school.

The Chance of a Lifetime Appeal is the current active appeal for the Elizabeth College Foundation.

With twin aims, notably the purchase of Perrot Court, and the provision of a new Foundation Bursary Scheme, the Appeal is a new landmark moment in the history of Elizabeth College.

Including the tremendously generous legacy left by Roger Perrot and donations received so far, we have raised a phenomenal sum towards the Appeal goals. However, there is still ongoing fundraising required to ensure the sustainability of the Foundation Bursary Scheme and ensure that the College facilities include Perrot Court are the best possible for our students. The Foundation seeks, therefore, to attract as much support as it can for the Chance of a Lifetime Appeal.

Thank you to all the donors who have given their support, we really cannot thank you enough.
