16-19 Bursary Fund

The 16 to 19 Bursary Fund is money the government has given to local authorities, schools, colleges and other education and training providers to provide financial support to help students overcome specific barriers to participation, so they can remain in education.

Bursary Fund

Epsom and Ewell High School will target the 16-19 Bursary fund to ensure that it reaches students who face significant barriers to participating in education and will target funds to help the students in greatest need. (See categories 1-4 on the application form).  Eligible students could receive an annual bursary of up to £1,200.

Discretionary fund

Students who are not eligible for the Bursary Fund can apply to the Discretionary Fund to support course specific educational visits and residential trips, educational materials such as books and equipment, university application (UCAS) fees and transport costs (if an Oyster card is not available).
