The Ministry of Finance, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, has announced an extension for the application deadline for the $200 Back to School Support program. The new deadline will now be one week later, with applications needing to be submitted by Friday, December 13, 2024, at 5 pm.
Originally opened on October 31, the application period was set to close today at 5 pm. However, this extension allows additional time for eligible parents and guardians to complete their applications and submit them to their respective schools.
This initiative aims to ease the financial burden on families as they prepare for the new school year. The extension provides a valuable opportunity for those who have yet to apply, ensuring more children can benefit from this support. Parents are encouraged to take advantage of this extra week to secure the resources needed for their children’s education.
Overall, this proactive measure reflects the government’s commitment to supporting families during these challenging times.
