TIME is running out for parents in the Pershore area to secure their child a free place at the Royal Grammar School in Worcester.
Applications are invited for a special bursary open to children currently studying at either St Barnabas Middle School in Drakes Broughton or St Nicholas Middle School in Pinvin.
An Old Boy from the Grammar has agreed to pay the fees of one girl or boy joining the school in September right through until their A Levels.
Interested parents will need to be quick off the mark as the closing date for applications is January 23rd 2004.
Interested parents can visit the school's open day from 9am-12 noon on Saturday, January 17 and speak to the registrar about the bursary.
Registrar Sue Johnston said: "The old boy, who preferred to remain anonymous, felt his own time at the school was instrumental in helping him make a success of his life.
He wanted to offer this opportunity to another child who might not otherwise be able to attend a school like Royal Grammar."
For more information call Mrs Johnston on 01905 613391.s
