The new academic year is here – are you eligible for a grant?

If you are a young resident of Horley under the age of 25 you are entitled to a grant if you are at a key stage in your education.

The grants are a fixed sum paid to every child on request at up to four stages of their education.

The current grants are:

• Rising fives about to start school – £100
• At the start of secondary education (usually Year 7) – £300
• At the start of A-levels, college training apprenticeships etc. (Year 12 or equivalent) – £500
• At the start of further education, University, or other accredited training (which is unpaid or paid below the relevant minimum wage) at age 18 to 24 – £1000
