Rejected petition Restoring EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance)

More details

We believe EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance) she be restored to students aged 16 - 18 in further education. Eligible courses such as: GCSE , A Level , BTEC , NVQ & GNVQ. People over the eligible age of 18 under these courses will not be excepted. £10 a week is the amount, however this means student bursaries for thing such as uniform will be void and disallowed except free school meals if you are eligible.
