Primary School Scholarships
In conjunction with the Public Education Foundation, the GO Foundation offers scholarships to Indigenous primary school students through their early and most formative years of schooling. Scholarships are provided in a collaborative model with cultural mentoring and opportunities from GO’s partners to compliment in-school learning.
Scholarship Selection Criteria
School attendance
GO Scholars need an attendance rate of 90% or higher. If your attendance is lower than this, we want to know why.
Aspiration
We are looking for students who work hard. You don’t have to get the best marks but you have to have a good attitude. We want to see you making an effort with your studies.
Cultural identity
GO Scholars have a strong cultural identity or a deep desire to know more. We look for evidence of this deep desire in your activities and engagement with community.
Giving Back
At GO, we care about other people, our communities and our families. We want students who give back to others and we look for examples of how you do this.
Financial need
We don’t means test our scholarships or ask for tax papers, but instead look for financial need in your application.
