Scholarships and Bursaries

Eligibility
As a rough rule of thumb, those students whose parental income level is above £47,000 per annum would not be considered eligible for a short term or a long term bursary.

How to Apply for a Bursary
Parents seeking a bursary should complete a form, ask for it to be certified by the tax office and then return it to the College. All income must be shown on the form, whether it is taxed in Jersey or not. N.B. The Income Tax Department will not be able to certify your form unless they have received your completed tax return. Parents applying for short term help should write a letter to accompany their form explaining the cause of the alteration in their level of income and submit supporting documentation where it is available.

Parents who are proprietors, partners, directors or substantial shareholders in any business undertaking, or trust, or who exercise control over that undertaking should submit a complete copy of the previous year’s certified accounts together with the certified form. As is the case with student awards any benefit accruing from a business or a trust will be judged as income, whether that benefit is remitted to the person concerned or not. Where a student’s parents are divorced, parents should also provide a copy of any court orders relating to maintenance and care and control. Parents who have more than one daughter at JCG should complete one form only.

When Should I Apply?
Parents may apply for short term help at any point during the year. Normally, applications for long term bursaries will be considered in February for an award the following September so parents seeking assistance for Year 10 should apply in Year 9. Please note that it may take several weeks for your application to be processed. Completed, certified forms will need to be returned to the College by the third week of February.

Terms and Conditions
All bursaries are subject to annual review. The size of the award is related to the level of parental income and so may vary from year to year (or cease altogether if there has been a significant increase). Bursaries are awarded subject to satisfactory attendance, behaviour and academic performance. Awards may be withdrawn from students who fail to meet these conditions. Awards are decided by the Principal acting on the advice of the Finance Sub-Committee of the Governing Body.
