Bernard Elementary

At Bernard Elementary, we believe that every student should have access to a quality education regardless of their financial circumstances. That's why we offer various scholarships and financial aid programs to support students who may need assistance with tuition fees, uniforms, or other school-related expenses. Our goal is to ensure that all students have the opportunity to thrive academically and reach their full potential, regardless of their economic background. Through our commitment to providing financial assistance, we aim to create an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all students at Bernard Elementary.

One way for students at BERNARD ELEMENTARY to manage their finances is by creating a budget. Encouraging students to track their expenses and income can help them understand where their money is going and where they can save. This can also teach them the importance of prioritizing their spending and saving for future goals.

Another way is to educate students about the value of saving money. Encouraging them to set aside a portion of their allowance or earnings for savings can help instill good financial habits early on. Teaching them about the concept of compound interest and long-term savings goals can also motivate them to start saving early.

Additionally, introducing basic concepts of investing and the importance of making informed financial decisions can help students grow their knowledge and confidence in managing their finances. Providing resources and support for students to learn about different investment options can empower them to make smart choices with their money.

If you are looking for a scholarship or financial aid for your studies, there are literally hundreds of online sources, with both government funding and private funds available. What you don’t want to fall victim to is some sort of scam, which may ask you to pay for the service of applying for a scholarship or even asking you for some sort of deposit. Here are some useful tips if you want to avoid scamming altogether.1- Remember - no authorised and responsible institution will charge you anything for enquiring about financial aid, or for applying for funds. 2- Money up front/ Application Fee - Never send money up front for an application fee - if you are asked to do so, this is definitely a scam!.3- Loan Fees - When applying for a loan, if a company asks you for a loan fee before they will release the money to you, don't go through with it. Companies add fees to your loan balance and would never ask you to pay upfront.4- Guaranteed Scholarships - There is no such thing as a guaranteed scholarship and any company that says they will guarantee you one on payment of a fee will never get back to you. 5- Company/ Scholarship Names - If you see a scholarship service or company that is using words like 'official', 'national', 'government' or other governmental or official sounding names be careful. They are most probably trying to sound official to cover up the scam.6- Phishing schemes - It may be that you get an email, a phone call or an SMS message, asking you for details like your name, address, social security number etc, along with a link to an application form on a website. This is actually a “phishing site” designed to steal your information. In general, you should never give your personal details to anyone, unless you trust them implicitly!.7- Lottery-based scholarships - If you are asked to complete a survey in return for entry into a prize draw (the prize being a scholarship) be very careful. The company providing the scholarship is making money off the information you provide by selling it to third parties. Your chances of winning are very slim and are not based on merit.8- Ask yourself, 'Is it too good to be true?' Although you may want to believe that your dream has just come true, use your common sense and do some research on the organisation involved.9- In general, never pay money - Things like application fees and service fees will be free for legitimate scholarships and you will never be asked to pay money.10- Check them out - If you have a scholarship offer that is asking for money up front, contact them personally. Real companies will be transparent in their services, location etc while scammers will usually be hard to get hold of.Lastly, always make sure that you are applying to an authorised university and that you go through their official channels when you send your personal details.
