Financial Support
Worries over money and finance shouldn’t stop you from coming to sixth form. We have options available to help support those that may find it more difficult to cover the costs of participating in education.
If you need help or advice, please get in touch with our Student Services Finance team, call 0151 353 4444 or email student.finance@hughbaird.ac.uk.
Finance Wallet
Our Finance Wallet package is designed to assist those students who may find it more challenging to cover the costs associated with their education.
Depending on your circumstances, we can help you use our Finance Wallet package to build and access personalised financial support tailored to you.
Your Travel
Don’t let travel be a barrier to your success. The Your Travel option could help you get to college by using public transport options, such as bus or train.
If you don't live near a train or bus route, you may be able to receive a contribution towards your travel costs.
Your Meals
For breakfast, lunch, or dinner, we’ve got you covered. The Your Meals option will provide you with money towards the cost of your meals at our on-campus outlets during your study with us.
Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, so we make sure every single student can enjoy a free one – every day! Arrive at College before your classes start and head to one of our eating outlets. It’ll help you get focused and start your day perfectly.
Your Kit
We understand that having the right tools and resources is important for your success. We collaborate closely with your courses to ensure you have access to everything you need, such as equipment and uniforms.
The Your Kit option usually covers 100% of the cost.
