Mayville High School

Key takeaways

  • Mayville High School's published work centres on its own day school, and most of its money goes to fee bursaries and scholarships for its own pupils, so you should check whether an outside project fits its stated priorities before approaching it.
  • Neither the annual report nor the register gives a grants figure or grant range that could be read, and the register shows no Part B grants to institutions, so there is no typical grant size to aim for.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so the sensible first step is to contact the school using the contact shown there.
  • Neither the annual report nor its website says how competitive donations are or what timing applies, so ask about both when you get in touch.
  • No eligibility rules or exclusions are stated, so nothing here rules your organisation out.
