One for Mike maybe?
How many scholarships are given for KEHS - full or partial?
Any ideas? I believe it's a lot less than KES as there seems to be less in the coffers at the girls' school.
We had this question a year or two ago; I don't think there's been a more recent Foundation report since so the numbers probably still stand if you can find the thread (I've done a quick skim but not turned it up). Slightly less scholarship money but slightly more bursary money when I looked at it.

No, this one:

From which you can see that there was actually slightly more support overall for KEHS than KES in 2010 (on a per capita basis), but in the form of bursaries rather than scholarships. Scholarship funding available at KEHS is equivalent, I believe, to two full fee places (96k is a little less than that but in the right ball park). A few years ago they used to spread that money very thinly (there were reports of people being offered scholarships for amounts like 1/16th of fees) but I have the impression that they now offer fewer scholarships but for much more credible amounts.
