Year 7 entry
The Sports Department offers scholarships to push the boundaries of talented individuals, maximising their enjoyment and performance in sport.
Sports scholars will, by definition, become role models for other Monkton students. Their actions will inspire and motivate others around them both inside and outside of a sports setting. An attitude that commits fully to developing in sport will result in positive behaviours around and outside the school that others will aspire to.
The programme will provide scholars with:
- Individually tailored programmes where appropriate
- Guidance in fundamental movement skills, nutrition, performance preparation and performance lifestyle
- Access to specific talks and workshops
- An introduction to strength and conditioning sessions
- Support through informal mentoring opportunities
The application deadline for 2027/2028 will be finalised shortly.
Entry Requirements
Strong current sporting ability in two or more of Monkton’s main sports, or outstanding current achievement in any one sport.
A piece to camera, no more than 60 seconds, where you rank your top 2-5 sports, explain what you love about sport, what sporting achievements you are most proud of and why you think you would be a good sports scholar.
