Tarvin Educational Foundation is the Charity set up in 1955 to manage the endowment of the old Tarvin Grammar School (pictured). Its purpose is to assist the educational needs of students of secondary school age or older who live in the ancient Parish of Tarvin. This is an area that covers Tarvin, Kelsall, Ashton Hayes and Clotton, Hoofield.

The awards are made by the governors of the trust who are representatives from those parish councils, a member of Cheshire West and Chester Council as the local education Authority and up to three co-opted members.

This assistance may take the form of financial assistance for books, musical instruments, tools for a trade, other projects and travel on approved courses. Usually today, this takes the form of help with the costs of university or college courses, apprenticeships and also for overseas projects of an educational nature.

The Governor’s are pleased to consider any application made by students residing in the appropriate area.
