This year Two Thousand Hundred (2,300) Senior High School students across the country will be awarded scholarships under the Secondary Education Improvement Project (SEIP) for the 2014/2015 academic year at various SHS across the country. Each student beneficiary will be entitled to an amount of approximately two thousand Ghana Cedis (2,000) per annum over a three-year period within which students are expected to have completed their secondary education.

Students that qualify to receive the scholarships under SEIP are orphans without support, a student who caters for herself or himself, a disabled student without support, a student living with HIV/AIDS and a student in a household with an income below the minimum wage. The others are a student from a Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) beneficiary household, a student from a single parent family with low income, a student whose parents/guardians are all unemployed and a student whose parents/guardians are living with disability or serious illness. The rest are a student from a large household that is unable to afford to send all children to school, a teenage mother without support and willing to go back to school and a student with sickle cell disease. The selection process is managed by a team including the District Directors of Education, Heads of beneficiary schools, District Girl’s Education Officers, Assembly Members and the members of the District Education Oversight Committees.
