Bring Back EMA
We are a group of year 11's trying to bring back EMA's to the country so that we are able to go to further education.
The Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA) scheme closed to new applicants on 1 January 2011. Schools, colleges and training providers have bursary funds to help you if you’re studying or starting a course and face financial hardship however this targets people of very poor backgrounds, generally the one who will not go into further education.
What we want is 100,000 signatures to prove to further authority how serious we are.
