Cranbrook School’s mission is to encourage and enable young learners to fulfil their potential and thrive, both in and outside the classroom.
We offer a selection of scholarships which provide a pathway for gifted and talented individuals to benefit from our world-class academic programmes, outstanding teaching staff, and extensive co-curricular and sporting opportunities. Each scholarship at Cranbrook recognises the skills, character, and pursuit of excellence we champion at our School.
The awarding of a Scholarship is dependent upon academic results from the Cranbrook School Scholarship Examination (conducted by Academic Assessment Services), submission of supporting materials, and an interview. Please note scholarships are only awarded to Australian citizens.
