School - travel support

Assistance with Travelling Expenses 2007/2008

Students under the age of 19 on 1 September 2007 qualify for travel assistance where the distance by the most direct route between home and the nearest college offering the course exceeds three miles and the course to be followed is a full time course of at least 17 study hours per week. Students continuing into Year 2 who are now over 19 but were under 19 on 1 September 2006 will remain eligible for travel assistance.
