School Sponsorship

Primary school in Malawi is free however second level schooling is extremely costly. As a result 7% of males and 5% of females receive second level education. The Secondary School programme is a four year cycle.

The Billy Riordan Memorial Trust continues to sponsor a number of students from Cape Maclear. This sponsorship programme is currently under review and no new sponsorships are being undertaken at present. Should this scheme re-commence, notice will be posted on this web site.
