Bursary
16-19 Bursary Fund for Young People
The Government has set aside some money for schools, colleges, training providers and local authorities to allocate to young people who need financial support to stay on in further education or training. This is called the 16-19 Bursary Fund.
It could help you with any education-related costs that may arise during the school year, including essentials like a meal during the day or transport to your school, college or training provider. Or you might need extra help to buy additional books, clothing or equipment for your course, or pay for educational visits.

Pupils, who feel that they qualify for a bursary due to financial hardship, need to collect an application form from Mrs Burton (burtond@piggottschool.org) and submit their completed form directly to the school as soon as possible.
