Programme Description
We offer Tertiary bursaries for our employees' children. The employees' children must pass Gr12 on their own however we start our career guidance in grade 11 or as early as possible and collect termly reports from Grade 10.
We run a means test to determine what the families estimate family contribution to education would be. The Polyoak Family Education Foundation (PFEF) will either offer a full (fees and textbooks/essential materials) or part bursary (part fees only) to the employee for their child's tertiary education. The child/learner and the family receive detailed documents detailing what we expect from the family and learner though out the year.
It is not an academic bursary; our aim is to educated these learners for employment however we do require constant academic feedback from the learners to support them or redirect them to a more appropriate course.
Our bursaries are for studies at government subsidized Institutions only and for courses approved by our trustees and management. We have an in depth application process to ensure learners are choosing the most appropriate course to study.
