A school has relaunched its scholarship programme for girls from lower-income backgrounds.

St Anthony's School for Girls, an independent school in North End Road, Golders Green, has relaunched its scholarship initiative to allow girls from lower-income background to attend the school.

This only covers a percentage of annual school fees, and is based on whether the pupil meets academic standards.

Headteacher Laura Flannery said: "We are delighted that we are able to offer these scholarships to help them to thrive. We facilitate the achievement of academic excellence, in a caring and highly supportive, individualistic environment."
