Sixth Form Bursary Introduction 

The 16-19 Bursary comprises two elements; the Discretionary Bursary and the Bursary for defined vulnerable groups. 
The allocation of funds for the Discretionary Bursary from the Educational Funding Agency varies from year to year. As such, awards could vary depending, individual circumstances and established need, on the number of claimants and the total funds received by the Academy. 

The Bursary for defined vulnerable group is a fixed maximum amount of £1,200 that must be applied for from the Student Bursary Support Service (SBSS) on behalf of a student. This is a means tested bursary, there is no guarantee you will receive this but it will be decided on by need.
