Performance Benefits Program

The scholarship program remains engaged with past winners throughout their high school years, through programs designed to encourage high performance, provide mentorship and social engagements.

Performance Benefits Overview

The YDS Performance Benefits Program provides past winners the ability to enjoy rewards similar to corporate retention packages throughout their high school years. In the professional world, bonus programs designed to motivate high performers are common. Many corporations offer retention packages—a promised lump sum payable after a set period if the recipient remains with the company. By mirroring these professional structures, the YDS program is designed to encourage sustained high performance and long-term commitment.

Accruing Benefits

Winners earn monetary rewards based on their high school performance. By reaching target thresholds for final grades and class placement, students accrue value toward a final payout―the higher the performance, the greater the reward. This total is paid as a single lump sum upon graduation, provided the student completes their secondary education.

Payment Options Upon completing 5th Form, students face a choice:

• Immediate Payout: Receive the full accrued balance, which concludes the program.
• The 6th Form Extension: Forego immediate payment to extend the benefit period. This allows students to further increase their final payout by including their 6th Form performance.

Reporting and Tracking

Students are responsible for submitting their official end-of-year report cards annually. To ensure transparency, an online ledger is provided for winners to track their academic progress and current accrued balance in real-time.

It's Not all About Work

Annual Fun Day

Every year, new scholarship winners emerge from schools spread across the island. Though often separated by miles and mountains, these students share a common achievement. We believe there is immense value in bridging that distance.

The scholarship sponsors an annual social event for all current high school winners to enjoy a day of recreation and engagement. By connecting with peers who share the same journey, winners have the opportunity to build lasting friendships and a community of support.
