Student spotlights

Meet a selection of our students: most of those pictured below have used our programmes to change their direction in life: from the policewoman who became an historian, to the octagenarian who wanted a fresh challenge. Their stories illustrate how doors are opened through education. Please click on the photos below or use the menu to the left to learn more.

Bursaries and other sources of funding

Returning to education may present a financial challenge. The Department offers means-tested bursaries for those who need assistance. For more information on how to apply for a bursary or other funding - or how to donate funds in support of students in need - please visit our sources of funding pages.
