Financial Support

To support students who are experiencing financial difficulties that make it harder for them to participate fully in their courses, we offer financial assistance. The 16-19 Bursary Fund is made available by the Government to help those young people who may be facing financial constraints or difficulties in meeting the cost of accessing or continuing in post-16 further education.

In allocating the bursary fund, we will prioritise the most vulnerable students but will endeavour to support as many students as we can to participate in further education.

Recipients of the bursary fund are expected to use this support to help cover the costs of attending the Sixth Form. The anticipated costs include travel expenses, meals, course-related costs such as equipment, books and school trips.    The applicant is the student/young person and not the parent/carer.

All students applying for a bursary will need to have their own bank account.

There are three levels of Bursary payment; vulnerable, discretionary and transport.  For me information about the support available and how to apply please read our 16-19 Bursary Policy
