I'd suggest asking the school that your daughter will be attending in the first instance.
My daughter is doing her A-levels at a local FE college and they have a Learner Support Fund which has been invaluable in meeting some of the course costs (trips, books, materials, even lunches on the days that she has to be at college over lunchtime).
I don't know whether or not schools have anything similar to help students.0 -
Child tax credit and child benefit are for those things.
Does she require specialist equipment or clothing?0 -
If your wages (assuming you are working) and the benefits you are already getting don't cover those things then maybe she could get a part-time job?0
