SBF High School Scholarships:
SBF manages two Scholarships under the umbrella of the SBF Scholarship. The first is the SBF Scholarship; where each successful scholar from around the Cape Town Metropole, is placed in one of our twelve partner schools. The second scholarship is the Disa High School Scholarship, where successful scholars from our sister school, Disa Primary in Hout Bay, are placed at Groote Schuur High School. Each year we see a new cohort of amazing young scholars join our SBF family.

SBF has developed a dedicated curriculum which we work through with our young people from Grade 8 – Grade 12, supporting the development of key attributes and building the skills of the future. We provide a wide range of support to our scholars based on a holistic programme; ranging from psychosocial support, tutoring, boarding, sports, culture, service and more!

We have partnered with 13 of Cape Town’s best High Schools to ensure that our scholars receive a well-rounded education, equipping them with the academics, skills and exposure to opportunities needed to thrive in the future.

Our parents and guardians are central to SBF achieving its purpose and enabling young scholars to access tertiary opportunities to break the chain of poverty. By providing resources and support to them, we ensure that they are capacitated to fully support their children in this journey.
