Scholarships - Number and Value, Conditions and Criteria
Scholarships - Number and Value
The trustees have agreed that for 2008-2009, 30 scholarships
maybe awarded of between £300 and £500 (GBP),
and one or two of up to £1,000 in value.
New awards:
The Trustees have agreed that one or two scholarships of £1,000 may be
awarded to candidates whose financial needs are such that a gap year
project would not be possible without such an award.
Scholarships - Conditions
- Winners of scholarships must agree to come back to their school at an
appropriate time after their return from their gap year project to talk to
the Sixth Form about their experiences.
- Winners of scholarships must write a report for the Trustees to be sent
to the administrator immediately after their return from their project.
Scholarships - Criteria
Candidates need to fulfil the following criteria:
- The benefit to the community of the country/countries visited during the
gap year project. The majority of awards go to boys and girls involved in
projects in poorer countries or the poorer areas of other countries.
- The suitability of the organisation of the project in terms of duration
and the gap organization involved, if there is one.
- Financial need, assessed from the report from the Head, the statements
in the application form, and the breakdown of expenses and methods of
raising money in the application form.
- Suitable character and promise, assessed from the quality of the written
application and the reference of the Head of the school.
