The School Essentials Grant (formally School Uniform Grant) for 24-25 closed on 31st May 2025. The new grant will open for applications on 1st July 2025. Parents are then applying for the year group that their child will be attending as of September 2025 academic year.
Children must be in receipt of Free School Meals (FSM) that parents have been granted via an application to the Local Authority, in order to qualify. This does not include the children on Universal FSM or Transitionally Protected FSM. Parents of children on universal FSM will need to apply for FSM in order to qualify.
Parents with children moving from Nursery to Reception, would need to apply and be granted FSM before they are able to access the grant.
All information on the SEG can be found on the Swansea Council Website: School Essentials Grant (formerly school uniform grant - PDG access) - Swansea.
The grant applications will run from 1st July 2025 to 31st May 2026.
