Financial Support

The College receives funding from the Education and Skills Funding Agency to offer a bursary scheme aimed at supporting students with a total household income of £30,000 or less. This bursary provides financial assistance to help remove specific barriers to education enabling you to stay in or return to learning. Support may include contributions towards transport, meals, essential kits or equipment, course materials, educational trips and childcare on the days you attend College. Any support awarded will be subject to the terms and conditions outlined in our bursary application form.
