2020 SECONDARY ASSISTANCE SCHEME

PUBLIC SCHOOLS Applications close 9 April 2020

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Western Australian Department of Education provides an allowance to assist eligible families with secondary schooling costs.

Parents/guardians must apply for the Secondary Assistance Scheme each school year (annually) – applications do not carry forward to future years.

To be eligible for the supplement allowance, the parent/guardian must hold a Department of Human Services (Centrelink) or Veterans’ Affairs card that represents a statement of income for the family.

The allowance consists of two components:

$115 Clothing Allowance paid directly to the parent/guardian or the school.

$235 Educational Program Allowancepaid directly to the school.

Application is made by the parent or guardian for student/s enrolled in Years 7–12 studying a full time secondary course at a Western Australian public school.

ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Parent or Guardian must hold one of the following cards:

Department of Human Services (Centrelink) Health Care Card

Department of Human Services (Centrelink) Pensioner Concession Card

Veterans’ Affairs Pensioner Concession Card

Please Note: The only Veterans’ Affairs Card that meets the criteria is a blue card that is issued annually and expires in December each year. This card is income means tested.

The parent/guardian must be the holder of a card that is valid some time during first term. Students must be listed on the claimant’s card (except for some year 11 and 12 students, or in cases of disability/health reasons). In this instance, the school must sight both concession cards. The only exception to this is when a student holds their own health care card and has been declared independent by Centrelink (e.g. Living Away from Home). In this instance, a letter of confirmation from Centrelink needs to accompany the application.

The allowance is paid up to and including the year the student turns 18 years of age i.e. students born in 2001 or before are ineligible in 2020.

APPLICATION FORMS

Application forms should not be altered and are to be completed at the school during Term 1 only. If the form is completed prior to the commencement of Term 1 the school

must complete the enrolment confirmation section to confirm attendance. (Forms dated by the school prior to Term 1, 2020 will not be accepted). Applications close last day of Term 1 – Thursday 9 April 2020.

LATE APPLICATIONS Late applications will only be accepted in extenuating circumstances and must be accompanied with a written explanation.

Eligible interstate or overseas students who are enrolled after first term may apply for the allowance. Date of enrolment must be noted on the application.

CONTRIBUTIONS AND CHARGES Schools will receive the Educational Program Allowance of $235 for Secondary Assistance recipients. For students in Years 7 to 10 the Allowance will be paid directly to the school and in the first instance, will be applied towards the voluntary contribution. For students in Years 11 to 12 the Allowance will be applied to cover charges, in the first instance.

CLOTHING ALLOWANCE

The clothing allowance of $115 will be paid to the parent/guardian unless indicated on the application form that you wish it to be paid to the school. If payment to the parent/guardian is requested, the payment will be deposited into the parent/guardian bank account. It can between take between 8 - 12 weeks to receive this payment. The BSB and Account Number must be supplied when completing the application.

PROCESSING OF PAYMENTS

Once the form is completed by the parent/guardian, the school will forward either the electronic file (via email) to the Financial Planning and Resourcing Directorate for processing whilst retaining the original form at the school or if completing the applications manually, forward the original forms retaining a photocopy for the school records.

We will endeavour to have all clothing payments made to the parent/guardian by 31 May 2020.

The leasing student is accountable for items stored in their locker.

Due care must be taken of the locker by the leasing student.

No dangerous or illegal items are to be kept in locker and no food items.

There is no refund for any unused portion of time.

The locker remains the property of Kinross College.

The use of the locker will be forfeited, along with any monies paid for the locker, should a student be found to be defacing or damaging the locker in any way, or storing inappropriate items in the locker
