Current Sponsored Students
Mohammed Juma
Mohammed is the first sponsored student to arrive in Year 10. The advantage of taking a student into the school a bit earlier, is that they have time to adapt to the British system and improve their English before starting work in the sixth form. Mohammed arrived to us from Mombasa and had starred in a film, and participated in the National Youth Choir in Kenya. He is also a strong athlete and has competed in long distance running.
Marion Mtei
EAST has agreed to sponsor Marion with $3000 a year towards the cost of her college fees in Dubai. She started a 3 years degree in January 2021 with Middlesex University to study Maths and Business. She was supported with her application and was given a $4000 scholarship from the university for each year and with this additional amount from EAST, she could afford to go. She has settled in well to the university well and is working hard. She hopes to return to Tanzania to become an accountant or a teacher once she has finished her degree.
