If you believe that a student qualifies for bursary support, please download and fill in the application form and return it to Mrs Perryman by hand, or scan and email it to the sperryman@brakenhale.co.uk.
Hard copies are also available from Mrs Perryman.
We will need to ask for evidence of income-assessed benefits or income so please attach these to the form in the first instance so as to avoid delays in receiving any allocated funds.
Please also be aware that bursary funds can only be used on things that we can justify will have a positive impact on students’ education. This may be travel to Open Days, UCAS applications, books and equipment, or anything that students need for their courses. We are very happy to advise students if they are not sure of anything.
If you do think that a student might be eligible we would urge you to apply; it can really help.
