Nova Pioneer's Bursary and Scholarship Programmes
Nova Pioneer is a pan-African network of schools providing a world-class education at an accessible cost. Our students learn by debating, solving real-world problems, and building innovations rather than simply memorising facts as is too often the case in traditional education. The impact of our model is clear: many parents report that their children have been transformed within a few months in our schools and our students regularly exceed expectations for their age, including winning business plan competitions against university graduates and outperforming peers from around the world on rigorous assessments.
Providing Equal Opportunity
We created the Nova Pioneer Foundation to provide talented, aspirational young people with access to our schools regardless of their financial backgrounds. While our fees are far below those of similar quality schools, there are still many families in our focus countries that cannot afford our education model. To date, the Foundation has supported dozens of young people to receive a transformational education at our schools.
Spaces are limited - and as such are not automatically guaranteed - so we urge you to apply early should you be interested in pursuing either option.
Academic Scholarship Programme
The recipients of the Nova Pioneer Foundation's Academic Scholarships have been among the highest performing members of our community and are set to become true leaders and innovators of their countries. In 2023, this Programme was expanded to provide this opportunity to even more students.
Need-based Bursary Programme
This programme aims to help families who aspire to join the Nova Pioneer Schools community in South Africa but face financial constraints in affording the school fees. By offering bursaries that cover up to 50% of annual tuition, the Foundation aims to support eligible students from Grade 1 to Grade 10 at the various Nova Pioneer campuses in Johannesburg.
