Donate to Colyton Grammar School
Colyton Grammar School Academy Trust has a fantastic community, through your support for school with gifts of time or financial support we are able to provide the very best student experience.
Philanthropic support is part of our history, as the school was set up by generous local men of Colyton in 1546. This tradition of support continues today and is vital for its success.
The school is strategic and wants to ensure its future in education is world leading. State funded schools have a very restricted budget, through gifts to school you are enabling us to fulfil our aims and provide an outstanding environment for our students to flourish.
Ways to support the school
The Annual Fund is a regular / one off donation scheme to the school which runs each year, all year round. This fund builds up the more participants there are and allows the school to react quickly to departmental needs.
Over the last 2 years your support has provided over 200 hours of volunteer time and in excess of £160,000 of support for the school.
2019

WHY GIVE MONTHLY DONATIONS?
Monthly donations allows the school to plan how the funds will be used to enrich the student’s experience. We are in the process of setting up GoCardless to manage payments (updated October 2021), a link to the account will be added here.
