The Funza Lushaka Bursary Programme aims to promote teaching through the funding of students who are studying to go into the teaching profession.
This bursary is awarded for one academic year at a time and if you can show proof of academic success the bursary may be renewed each year until the recipient of the bursary has qualified as a teacher. For each year that you are funded, you need to repay the funding in terms of years you work as a teacher for Funza Lushaka. So you will need to apply for the renewal of the bursary every year.
