The JNBS Schools Savings Programme (SSP) was launched in September 2001, with two schools. To date, 900 schools, with approximately 120,805 students, across Jamaica are participating in the programme.
The primary objectives of the SSP are to:
- develop a sense of thrift among the youth
- assist in cultivating the habit of saving from a tender age
- Parent/guardian to complete the SSP application and reference form
- Submit completed form with the minimum amount to open the account:
- Basic/Infant/Primary school - $100.00
- All Age/High school - $200.00
- Once the completed forms are returned with the designated amounts and documents, the account will be established by the school coordinator (selected by school principal)
- Once the account has been established the student will be issued a passbook.
