bursaries and scholarships
Hi there,
does anyone know or heard of a child getting a bursary or scholarship for having very good ICT skills.
I know of the basic ones: academic, music, drama, sport.
Thanks.

Some schools offer DT scholarships but they are not worth much value. How good is DC at computers? There are lots of courses that have 6 year olds passing GCSE at age 6 so it is not unusual for kids to be highly pc literate. But if s/he is hacking into NASA then I think it may warrant some form of award. In saying that two pupils were expelled from Winchester a couple of years ago because they hacked into the schools system and uncovered a fees cartel , so maybe a school would want to stay well clear of a computer genius!
