EMA (Education Maintenance Allowance)

The Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA) is provided to assist some families with the costs associated with the education of their children. To be eligible for receipt of the EMA you must:

The eligibility criteria must be met as at the first day of Term 1 (29 January 2008 which is the first day for teaching staff) and Term 3 (14 July 2008).

The EMA application must be submitted to the school by 28 February 2008 for the first payment and 15 August 2008 for the second payment.

The EMA provides an annual amount of $215 for primary students and $430 for secondary students.

The EMA is paid in two instalments. The arrangements for 2008 continue to provide parents with 70 per cent of their portion of the EMA in the first instalment, in recognition that families incur the highest educational costs at the start of the school year.

The first instalment to families of $73.50 will be paid from March 2008. The second instalment of $31.50 for primary students will be paid from September 2008.

One half of each instalment is paid directly to parents (through the school) and the other half of each instalment is paid directly to the school.

The portion of the EMA, which is paid directly to the school, will be used on essential educational items for which parents are normally expected to provide or pay the school to provide. This portion will not be used to offset voluntary contributions.

Parents must submit their application to the school by 29 February 2008. Parents with continuing eligibility, who are paid the first instalment of 2008 through this school, will not be required to complete a new application for the second instalment. Parents who transfer children to another school after the first instalment and prior to the beginning of term 3, must reapply at the new school for the second instalment.

School Council appreciates that some parents may have difficulty in making contributions. The Principal, Julie Crawford, is available to discuss the matter in an endeavour to reach a mutually satisfactory solution.

Application forms are available from the school office.
