PAPPLEWICK BOYS SUCCEED ONCE AGAIN IN SCHOLARSHIPS INCLUDING TWO KING'S SCHOLARSHIPS TO ETON COLLEGE
Despite a very 'unusual' year to say the least, the various trials and tribulations did not affect Papplewick boys' success in gaining scholarships to their chosen Senior Schools this term. Enormous congratulations go to Jamie Pike and Andrew Zhang who have both won King’s Scholarships to Eton College, to Anthony Kim who has won an Academic Exhibition to Winchester College, to Viren Bhaika and John Ye who have both won Art Scholarships to Harrow School, and also to Seva Pospelov who has won an Art Scholarship to Tonbridge School.
Headmaster Tom Bunbury said, "It has felt wonderfully normal to be celebrating some scholarships once again here at Papplewick. We are hugely proud of the high standards that our boys reach"

Papplewick is a day, weekly, and full boarding preparatory school for around 210 boys between the ages of 6 and 13. Situated in 15 acres of land opposite Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire, Papplewick has an excellent record for academic achievement and feeds many of the UK’s top independent senior schools including Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Wellington, Stowe and Bradfield.
In the last three years the school has maintained its academic record, gaining no less than 38 awards to top independent schools, including three King’s Scholarships to Eton. Through its strong commitment to sports, the school also builds skills of teamwork, sportsmanship and responsibility.
As well as academic, sporting and cultural excellence, Papplewick aims to provide boys with the confidence and security they need to fulfil their potential, and the school strives to promote enthusiasm for life contribution to the community and kindness to others amongst all its pupils.
A report by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) in 2013 remarks that relationships between pupils and teachers: ‘are an outstanding strength of the school and are seminal in creating the strong sense of a mutually supportive and trusting community.’
Papplewick operates three daily return services from London, from Chiswick and Brook Green, Hammersmith and Ashburn Place, SW7. It also offers a daily run to and from Maidenhead.
