About JC Foundation
The JCG Foundation is a charity whose charitable aims are:
- Advancement of the education of students at Jersey College for Girls, Jersey and the Jersey College for Girls Preparatory School, Jersey (together the “Schools”).
- Widening access to the Schools through financial and other support, including in particular whole or part fee bursaries, for children able to benefit from a JCG education whose parents would otherwise be unable to afford the fees.
- Advancing the education of students in Jersey or from other countries, other than those at JCG, through organising, supporting and financing educational courses and related activities at the Schools for their benefit.
- Leadership of the whole JCG alumnae community, wherever its members may be, with the aim of developing its role as a body in Jersey, in particular by encouraging both its active involvement in, and support for, giving effect to all the objects of the Association and its wide engagement in the civil society of Jersey.
The Foundation’s Key Areas of Focus
Alumnae - to strengthen long-term connections with JCG Alumnae, creating a sustainable network of support and advocacy for the JCG Community and increasing the sense of belonging.
Development of Bursary Funding - to substantially increase funding available for bursaries and needs-based financial support for students; enable any student offered a place to be able to accept, irrespective of financial background.
Internationalism - The Foundation is actively engaged with recruiting international students for JCG. In addition, we run specialist summer programmes for local and international students. All proceeds from these activities fund bursaries to enable less advantaged students to attend the college.
Island-wide Learning - The JCG Foundation is committed to provide innovative educational projects, events and support to benefit all Jersey students.
After School Provision - At Little Leopards, we have a simple vision; to create a home from home environment where children are actively engaged in a range of stimulating and creative activities led by our qualified team. Learning and play is led by the children’s interests and curiosities using both indoor and outdoor experiences. We not only offer an after school club but also cater for ad hoc sessions and operate a holiday provision during the school holidays.
