Our Bursary Fund
Our school was founded through philanthropy: in 1502, former Lord Mayor of London John Percyvale left an endowment in his will to establish a school in his home town of Macclesfield. Our school was born. Since then, the generosity of former pupils, parents and staff through gifts and endowments have led to the continued growth and success of the school. Many former pupils choose to pass on the benefits of their education at King's by donating to our Bursary Fund. One in 15 pupils at King's receive some kind of financial assistance and, for those children, their bursary is life-changing.
If you would like to discuss any aspect of supporting our Bursary Fund, either through a one-off gift, regular giving or a gift in your will, please contact Caroline Johnson, Director of External Relations: caroline.johnson@kingsmac.co.uk

Capital Fund
In 2016 we set ourselves a fundraising target of £3 million for the development of our new campus, and we are delighted that we succeeded in raising £2.7m of this target thanks to the generosity of former pupils, parents, staff, governors and the Merchant Taylors' Company.

Percyvale Legacy Society
We believe making a commitment to The King's School's future by leaving a legacy should be recognised and thanked during the donor's lifetime. We have therefore created The Percyvale Legacy Society, open to all those who have notified us of their intention to make a bequest to the school.
Members of The Percyvale Society will be invited to former pupil events and these occasions will enable the school to update members on its latest developments as well as providing the opportunity to rekindle, maintain and develop friendships. Members will receive a silk Former Pupils' tie.
We recognise that a legacy is personal and private and you may choose not to be recognised through membership of the society, which we are happy to respect.
