Bursaries


SIS has a long history of providing financial assistance to students and their families. While the costs of running the school requires full school fees from those that are able to do so, each year the school does try to provide a number of bursaries to existing families who have encountered financial difficulties.

To be considered for a bursary, students must have completed at least one full academic year. If your family's financial situation threatens the ability of your child to continue attending SIS, please download our Bursary Application Handbook for guidelines regarding application.
