Bursary
The 16-19 Bursary Fund is paid by the Education Funding Agency (EFA) to Schools and Colleges so that they may provide financial help to students whose access to or completion of education might be inhibited by financial considerations. Each school has been allocated a fixed sum of money for the 16-19 Bursary Fund. This will vary from year to year.
Students who are eligible must apply and must also supply the required evidence to support the application. This fund is designed to help support those young people who face the greatest barriers to continuing in education post 16. The fund has two elements: the vulnerable bursary for vulnerable young people and the discretionary Bursary for young people facing financial barriers to participation. These funds can be used by the students to help pay towards the costs related to participation in full-time education, such as transport, educational visits, university open days, interviews, books and equipment.
If you think you may be eligible to apply for a Bursary, please read the 16-19 Bursary Procedure document which can be downloaded below. Please contact Mrs Price, 6th Form Administrator, if you have any questions.
