Scholarships – Performance Requirements

The benchmarks

For the duration of the scholarship, minimum marks will be set for each subject. There is also an overall average mark across all subjects which you will be required to meet.

The requirements are set to allow for differences in the level of difficulty between subjects, and also for your individual strengths and weaknesses.

The benchmarks are applied after the first semester of study, and may be adjusted over time, if necessary.

How tough are the benchmarks?

The marks required are not set to stretch you beyond the level of effort typically applied by a hard working secondary school student.

We strongly encourage participation in extra-circular activities such as sports and the arts.

Behavioural requirements

The terms of the scholarship also require a standard of behaviour. This means that behaviour including theft or drug use, for example, is not acceptable.

Allowance for unforeseen personal events

Allowance may be made for personal circumstances should unforeseen events affect your results.

Please note that such allowances for failure to meet performance or conduct standards will only be made at the discretion of the Foundation.
