The Royal Medical Foundation supports doctors, who are or have been registered with the General Medical Council and who are in financial hardship, and their families. In limited circumstances we can assist with children’s school fees to maintain educational stability when families are facing challenging times – this is primarily when children are already part-way through fee-paying education and any changes to their schooling would cause disruption, or where a child’s specific needs can only be met via provision at a fee-paying school.
