2020 Student Allowances - Secondary Assistance Scheme

The State Government, through the Department of Education, provides financial support to eligible parents through the Secondary Assistance Scheme (SAS). The aim of the scheme is to assist low income families with secondary schooling costs.

Eligible parents/guardians with students enrolled in Years 7 to 12 studying a full-time secondary course at a Western Australian non-government school will be able to apply for the Secondary Assistance Scheme (SAS) in 2020.

The Secondary Assistance Scheme consists of two allowances:

• $235.00 Education Program Allowance (payment made to the school); and
• $115 Clothing Allowance (payment made to the parent/guardian).

Parents/guardians in receipt of the ABSTUDY School Fees allowance from the Department of Human Services (Centrelink) are not eligible for the Secondary Assistance Scheme, but they may apply for the ABSTUDY Supplement Allowance.  The payment amount is $79.00 Education Program Allowance (payment made to the school).

Year 7 and 8 Immunisations

The second round of the Year 7 and 8 Immunisations will occur next week.

A SEQTA message has been sent to all parents and guardians to explain the days in more detail.

Students can wear their full College Tracksuit with their House Shirt on the day. Please ensure this includes the correct shoes as described in the College Diary.

If you have any questions or concerns please email me at: bmcgrath@norbert.wa.edu.au
