Assist8d Places zre an important means of Midening access to KEHS for academically able girts whose farnilie5 are Un8ble to afforrl the cost of school fees. By widening acce5S to all giAs with the tolent to flourish al KEHS, Assisted Places facilitate social mobility in the region. They gnable r8cipients to make the tnost of their talents as a result ol a KEHS education, prDwding a public benefi't both to the individuals who re￿1ve funding and the sO￿etY the r8cipienls go Dn to serve, whatever theirchosen PTofessi0￿. Fundraising for Assisled Places is inextricably linked to the School's outrea¢h and markèting, 811 designed lo ensure that aspiration5 to attend KEHS are raised acr05S the ￿gIOn. Outrea¢h activities led by teaching staff target both primary and secondary schools, enabling a g￿ater awareness of what a KEHS education can provid8 and 8nsuring that girls from 8 wide range of backgrounds feel the School is a place for them. KEHS has more than 60 schools in its ouli6ach network. In Autumn 2020, during the pandemic re5tridions, KEHS laun¢h8d Tuneup Tuesday- an online one-day 'arts school,, available free ol charge to any school who wanted to participate. This outreach project was designed to show the benefit of the arts to mental health and youth w811beittg, and the range ol interesting and rewarding careers in th& sector.

This is espe&ally important fof increasing a¢￿$ to KEHS from groups who might not othemse consider the School as a place for th8m, for a variety of social and cultural reasons. Assisted P5￿$ also help lo reverse history. sin￿ the demise of the Direct Grant sy8tém which èxlsted bètween 1944 and 1979. the School's population has swung from 80°h of pupils on Direct Gr8nts. to just 20¥0 of girfs on A8SiSted Place5.
