Discretionary Fund

The Education Discretionary Fund (EDF) is provided by the Students' Association, and enables School Presidents and Class Reps to promote academic representation. Funds are awarded on a discretionary basis upon application.

The fund has previously supported conferences, careers events, student-staff football tournaments, and language conversation classes.

Any questions about the fund should be sent to the Director of Education via [email protected].
