Bursary

Include: name of university, college or training provider, the title of the qualification you will gain and the start and end dates



Eg: "I would spend £500 on tools needed for my apprenticeship..."

We don't have enough money to support everyone who applies, so this will help us understand more about how it would help you get from where you are to where you want to be in the future.

The money is only available to people with a family income under £35,000 a year. We need to understand how you meet this criteria. Tell us about how many people earn income in your household, how many dependents are in your household and whether your family claims any means tested benefits (eg: Universal Credit)

Reference
We ask for a reference from you school/college tutor, subject teacher, or another professional person who knows you well. You will need to tell them why you need a reference, that you are applying for a Yeovil Educational Trust bursary, and give them this link to the reference form.

If you do not have anyone who can provide a reference please contact us by emailing info@somersetcf.org.uk or calling 01749 344949. Please let us know you are applying for a Yeovil Educational Trust bursary when you contact us.
