Global Access Partnerships

Pamoja Education’s Scholarship Programme for IB World Schools

The "Pamoja Global Access Partnership" is a scholarship programme offered by Pamoja Education to schools which would not otherwise be in a position to enrol students in online IB courses.

Pamoja Global Access Partnerships allow selected schools to enrol up to five students (per school), at no cost, in the two-year courses of their choice.

Pamoja Global Access Partnerships will be awarded based on an assessment of applicant school suitability and the recommendations of a Scholarship Committee.

Given the limited number of Global Access Partnerships available, the Scholarship Committee will select those schools which it believes will most benefit from participation in the programme, and whose students will make especially strong contributions to the intellectual, cultural and geographic diversity of the Pamoja Education online IB community.

Selection criteria

• the school's financial need
• the school's anticipated contribution to the intellectual, cultural and geographic diversity of Pamoja Education's virtual classrooms
• the school's commitment to supporting/guiding enrolled students in their online coursework
• the school's commitment to use the scholarship for students of good academic standing and potential for success in IB studies
