16-19 Bursary

The Government are introducing a new Bursary scheme for 16-19 year olds. This is due to replace the old EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance) scheme in September 2011.

Are you 16 and just finishing your schooling? Unsure if you are entitled to financial help?

The new 16-19 Bursary scheme (which is due to replace the EMA scheme in September) has been introduced to provide financial assistance to students and will be issued on a means-tested basis.
