AT THE Corby SIXTH FORM, WE DON’T WANT TRAVEL COSTS TO BE A BARRIER STOPPING YOU FROM COMING TO STUDY WITH US.
That’s why we are offering all our full-time students a travel bursary of up to £720 a year depending on your distance from the Sixth Form. This bursary is available if you
- have a household income of £40,000 or less
- live more than three miles (walking distance) from The Corby Sixth Form
- are not eligible for financial support for travel from your Local Authority.

Terms and conditions: we reserve the right to suspend or withdraw payments in the event of unsatisfactory attendance. The travel bursary is not open to students living less than three miles from the campus at which they are studying or those who are eligible for local authority post-16 subsidised travel.
