National Secondary School Programme

About the National Secondary School Programme

The first level of the programme is for Secondary School, where students who have displayed academic excellence through the Ujian Penilaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR) and outstanding extra-curricular activities are sponsored to complete five years of education.

Why start at 13 years old?

Axiata believes that the five years spent at Secondary School are among the most crucial years of a young individual's life. It is at this time that they will be exposed to and learn the values and habits that will eventually form the behavioural guidelines for their later years. Our Young Talent Programme is developed with the aim of producing high achieving and competent scholars.

Coverage

The Secondary School Scholarship (full / partial*) will cover five years of the secondary school education, subject to Axiata Foundation's terms and conditions at Kolej Yayasan Saad. The programme's coverage includes all tuition fees, text books, school uniforms and laptops**. A non-curriculum fund will be provided for students to participate in the school based extra-curricular activities.

In addition to the school related fees, Axiata Foundation will also bear the full cost of the Ax-Factor initiatives.

*Partial scholarship is subject to eligibility and household income
