Young Person Grants
If you are under 25, your parents live in Leicestershire and their joint income is less than £41,000 then you may be eligible for a grant.
Grants rarely exceed £2,000.
There are generally three categories into which you may fall:
You are at school or sixth form college and wish to go on a school educational visit or course that you believe will enhance your education. In addition grants have been made to those making visits to assist in third world countries on specific projects.
You have a conditional offer for or are already in higher education. If you are in higher education you will need to apply each year for a continuing grant. Second degrees will not be eligible for a grant.
You wish to take up an apprenticeship and need help with buying tools or other help.

School Grants
Schools which have pupils from the preferred area of benefit can apply for funds to enhance the school’s amenities.
To see if your school falls into the preferred area of benefit follow the link.
There is no standard form for these applications as they are all different. However, your application must be in writing and clearly set out what is being requested, why it will be of benefit/how it will be used and include quotations for any hardware etc.
The school is also expected to provide matching funds.
