Free Schoolbooks Scheme

Free Schoolbooks Scheme Information Note 2025-2026

From the start of the 2025-2026 Academic Year all students in all year groups will receive the resources that are listed below free of charge. The textbooks will be on loan from the school, whilst all other items will remain in the ownership of the students. However, if any of the items listed below are lost, it will be the responsibility of the students to replace them – not the school. We are delighted to be able to facilitate this money saving scheme.

Please Note –

  • All students must supply their own pencil case and school bag for the academic year.
  • Dictionaries and log tables will be available as class sets but will be kept in school.
  • It is important to note that any resources which have been provided by the school will be done so on a one-off basis. Any supplies which are lost or damaged will not be replaced by the school.
  • It is the responsibility of each student to maintain their books and stationery in good condition as textbooks will be returned at the end of the academic year and re-used as part of our school’s book rental scheme.
