Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when applications to the National Scholarship Scheme to open.
We are currently considering options for the design of the scholarship, which will determine the date for rolling out the scheme.
As part of the higher education reform consultation, we welcome views on how the eligibility for a national scholarship scheme should be set to support students and address ongoing financial barriers that can restrict high achieving, disadvantaged students from achieving their full academic potential whilst studying in higher education.
