Financial support for 16- to 19-year-olds

A range of financial support is available for young people aged 16 to 19 to help them, and their families, with the costs of staying in learning. The amount of support will depend on the type of course the learner is undertaking and their personal circumstances.

For the most recent information on current learner support programmes, go to:

The Learning and Skills Council website for provider information on the Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA).

The 'Money to learn' section of the Directgov website for information for young people or parents.

The Directgov website for details of the financial help available for young people in education or training.
