Awarded on an annual basis, the Peter Vaughan Memorial Scholarship is designed to encourage aspiration and success in progression to a Russell Group University amongst Worthing College students who are part of its ‘First Generation’ scholars, whose parent/s have not accessed a university education.
The Vaughan family have previously awarded former students, Jacob Pennels and Isaac Daughtrey the scholarship, which you can read more about here.
We are pleased to announce the latest winners of the Peter Vaughan Memorial Scholarship are
former Worthing College students Sakib Khahar (picture right), currently studying Computer Science at Southampton University and Fariha Chowdhury, currently studying Psychology at Queen Mary University, London. They each receive £500 in this academic year and another £250 each in September 2018 when they start their final year at university. They will also benefit from a business mentor and work experience opportunities to be facilitated by the Vaughan family, who have a wide mix of connections in the business community across many industry sectors all over the world.
