Transforming Futures
Opening doors, changing lives – Pangbourne’s commitment to transformational bursaries.
THE VISION
Since Pangbourne College was founded in 1917, supporting pupils in need has been central to our mission. Over the past 15 years, we’ve committed more than £2.5 million to life-changing bursaries—covering more than 100% of school fees.Five fully funded Sixth Form Places by 2030

£250,000 Annually by 2030
This is the annual cost to support five transformational bursaries. We’re building a sustainable culture of giving to meet this target.
£5 Million Endowment by 2035
To secure bursary funding forever, we aim to build a £5M endowment, supported by regular donors and legacy gifts.
The table details exactly how your contribution supports the Transforming Futures Award. It illustrates how you can fund anywhere from one-fiftieth of an award to a full year's sponsorship.
You can see how Gift Aid increases the value of your donation at no extra cost to you and how the net cost is significantly lower for 45% taxpayers. Whether you contribute £33 a month or sponsor a full award, your generosity directly enables a young person to benefit from a Pangbourne education.
REGULAR GIVING
Monthly or annual donations help us plan and commit to new bursary recipients. Eligible for Gift Aid (UK taxpayers).
ONE-OFF DONATION
Make a single contribution to cover a two-year Sixth Form place. Eligible for Gift Aid (UK taxpayers).
LEAVE A LEGACY
Pledge a gift in your will to help build our endowment fund and secure the programme in perpetuity.
We’re proud to partner with the Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation (RNCSF) to identify children from the West Berkshire area who would benefit most from a Pangbourne education.
Many of these students come from underserved communities or have experience in care. Through our weekly boarding programme, they receive the space, support, and structure to thrive—academically and personally.
"This partnership ensures a robust support system, both during their time at Pangbourne and beyond."
Each transformational bursary will be named in honour of significant figures from the College’s history.
The first will commemorate Anthony Hudson MBE, who led the College from 1988–2000 and championed co-education and the building of the Falkland Islands Memorial Chapel. The second will commemorate Peter Points, the first Headmaster of Pangbourne College in 1969.
Together, we can ensure that a Pangbourne education remains accessible to those who would benefit most.
Your support empowers students, strengthens our community, and builds a legacy of impact.
