EMA
EMA can give you up to £30 a week to help you get more qualifications or vocational skills after 16. This includes:
- full-time further education (FE) courses at college or school, up to and including Level 3, that requires not less than 12 guided learning hours a week for a minimum of ten weeks
- a course leading to an Apprenticeship that requires not less than 12 guided learning hours a week for a minimum of ten weeks
- a foundation learning programme that requires not less than 12 guided learning hours a week for a minimum of ten weeks
EMA will not affect the child benefit your parents or carers receive, nor will it affect any money you earn from a part-time job. However, the amount you receive will depend on your household income.
