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

There are two types of 16-19 bursaries available:

Level 1 – for defined vulnerable groups of up to £1,200 per year

Level 2 – discretionary bursary for students who require financial support to allow them to stay in education

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