Introduction
The School Assistance Scheme (SAS) is an education subsidy provided for Malay/Muslims students from disadvantaged families who are attending MENDAKI-funded tuition programmes.
It aims to complement existing schemes provided at the national level such as MOE’s Financial Assistance Scheme. We encourage you to apply for the national financial schemes to get more comprehensive support in your children’s education journey.
