Development
The Development Office at St Catherine’s School was set up in 2006 and works with alumnae, parents and friends to raise funds for the School in support of building projects, bursaries and exceptional pieces of equipment. Like many girls’ schools, St Catherine’s does not enjoy the benefits of a capital endowment, so donations are extremely valuable to the School which is a registered charity. Generous gifts have enabled the School to accelerate its provision of incredible facilities, providing lasting benefits for both present and future generations. You can support St Catherine's in many ways.
Bright Futures Bursary Programme
- We are proud of this programme to support girls who are financially disadvantaged but full of potential.
- Individual and collective generosity ensures talented girls can gain a first class education.
- If you would like to give the gift of education please click on the 'Bright Futures' picture below.
Gifts in Wills
- We are very grateful for alumnae, past staff, parents, Grandparents and friends for their gifts to the School made as legacy bequests.
- These gifts have been directed to Music, the Arts, the Chapel and to the School's future success.
- For more information click the 'Leaving a Legacy' picture below.

Recognition
We welcome the opportunity to thank those who make charitable gifts to St Catherine's School. All supporters all recognised in our online Donor Roll either by name or anonymously as is their preference. We also acknowledge gifts in our annual Impact of Giving Report. To recognise the impact of philanthropy across the School we also thank alumnae, parents and friends through plaques in new facilities and spaces and are pleased to acknowledge generous support in this way. This practice also encourages the community as a whole to consider their support.
Gifts to the St Catherine's Community
The Board of Governors of St Catherine’s welcome offers of donations of all sizes to St Catherine’s, whether in connection with specific campaigns or to the Annual Fund, thus enabling continuing development over the long term. Donations must be freely given with no expectation of anything in return other than due thanks and recognition. The Governors’ are pleased to accept lawful donations which are given in good faith and which are compatible with the School’s aims, values and strategic objectives. As the School values and safeguards its autonomy, integrity and reputation, the Governors do not accept donations when a condition of acceptance would compromise these fundamental principles. The Acceptance of Donations Policy is available on request from the Development Director.
Tax Efficient Giving
A gift of £5,000 made by a 40% tax payer will cost the donor £3,750 and be worth £6,250 to the School. A gift of £20,000 made by a 40% tax payer will cost the donor £15,000 and be worth £25,000 to the School. You can add your charitable donations on your tax return and claim back the tax.
Gift Aid - Allows the School to claim an additional 25p for each £1 you donate from the Government at no additional cost to you, this makes your donation worth even more.
Matched Giving - you can double your impact with your gift through an employer matched-giving scheme.
Payroll Giving - you can choose to give a gift to St Catherine's monthly as you earn, it is paid before tax and national insurance and so is very tax efficient; your payroll department will provide a form if this is available.
