The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund provides financial support to help students aged 16 to 19 overcome specific barriers to participation so they can remain in education.

• A Bursary Award for Vulnerable Groups (up to £1,200 per year) for students most in need of financial support:  children in care, care leavers, those on income support and those in receipt of both disability living allowance and employment support allowance.
   
• A Discretionary Award available for students who require additional financial support to meet financial costs to allow them to stay on in education.

Students who receive a bursary award in Year 12 must make a new application in Year 13.

For more information and an application form please see the policy document below.
