Support to overcome financial and material barriers to learning.
MAKING EDUCATION A RIGHT, NOT A PRIVILEGE
Our Scholarship and Education Access programme addresses financial and material barriers that can interrupt education for vulnerable learners. Support connects school fees and essential materials with learner dignity, wellbeing, mentorship and educational continuity. We work with schools and caregivers to understand needs and support each learner’s progress.
HOW SUPPORT IS CONSIDERED
Priority is given to learners facing significant barriers to educational participation. Support is subject to eligibility assessment, verification, approval and available resources. Identification or referral does not automatically guarantee a scholarship.
THE LEARNER JOURNEY
Identification → Assessment → Verification → Approval → Enrolment → Support → Attendance and wellbeing follow-up → Progression and transition.
SUPPORT THAT FOLLOWS THE LEARNER
