Funza Lushaka is a merit-based bursary. The selection process takes into account your academic achievements, leadership potential, and alignment with the programme's goals. Priority is given to students pursuing teaching in areas where teacher shortages are most acute, such as Stem (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) subjects and African languages.
As a Funza Lushaka Bursary recipient, you will be required to teach at a public school for the same number of years you received funding. This ensures that the programme benefits not only the bursary holder but also the broader South African educational landscape.
