Ignite Scholarship Programme (Years 7 – 11)

The Arbor School’s Ignite Scholars programme is an avenue to pursue and embed a culture whereby students demonstrating academic excellence may be recruited, rewarded, and retained through a scholarship programme. The value of a scholarship is up to 75% of annual fees. Scholarships are for fixed periods of time (usually 2 years in duration) and will be awarded to students demonstrating the potential to achieve to the highest levels.

Selected candidates will demonstrate outstanding prior achievement or academic capacity in one or more subject area. Additional demonstrable levels of excellence may be taken into consideration, including excellence in sports, arts or culture; however academic achievement is the deciding factor when considering applicants for the Arbor Scholarship programme.
