A bursary has been implemented to give an award to the top achievers in the GSAT examinations at both the Pembroke Hall Primary and Maverley Primary and Junior High Schools. The awards range from between $15,000 to $50,000.
This initiative started in 2013 when the then Minister of Health Dr. Fenton Ferguson made an award to the top GSAT boy from the Maverley Primary and Junior High School. I am keen on ensuring that this assistance continues by making annual donations for its maintenance. The social intervention program, offered by the Citizens Security and Justice Program (CSJP) working in conjunction with HEART have targeted ‘at risk’ youth in Maverley for skill based training thus offering greater opportunities for employment.
