Leaving a legacy to Wells Cathedral School
Our mission is simple: to make it possible for more children who could flourish at Wells to come to school here.
Wells is a School that values and encourages individuality and creativity, recognising that diversity among our School community fosters both. There is no such thing as a typical Wellensian, we are proud to have pupils from all walks of life and backgrounds – each of them bringing a unique perspective that enriches the whole School community.
Like many who enjoyed bursaries (or Direct Grant/Assisted Places) here in the past, we want future generations to benefit from those same opportunities.
By including a gift to the School in your will, you are helping shape the lives of future Wellensians.

You can leave just 1% of your estate’s value to the Foundation in your Will? This leaves the remaining 99% to the people closest to you. You can, of course, leave more if you wish to.
