The task team presented the Ikusasa Financial Aid Scheme blue print model at the Fees Commission of Inquiry in Centurion on Monday.
The funding model is aimed at supporting the poor and so called 'missing middle' students through a combination of grants.
The ministerial task team Chairperson Sizwe Nxasana says under the new proposed model, poor students will be fully subsidised.
“It is feasible to offer free education to the poor and partially subsidise education to the so called 'missing middle'.”
Nxasana says funding will come from various sources including government and the private sector.
