Financial Support

At Dover Grammar School for Girls, we are committed to providing support for students who require financial assistance in order to complete their post-16 education. The following bursaries are available:

DGGS 16-19 Bursary Fund

Guaranteed Bursaries

If you are a young person in care, a care leaver, in receipt of income support or a disabled young person in receipt of Employment Support Allowance and Disability Living Allowance then you qualify for a £1200 bursary.

Discretionary Bursaries

You can apply for funding for a specific educational purpose: • Contribution towards a Kent 16+ Travel Card or other transport costs • Meals in school • Books and equipment • Educational trips and visits. Please note: a bursary is not intended to cover your living costs and is not a replacement for other benefits
