each education board area for the past five years; and how these awards are calculated.
The number and value of awards made by education and library boards and held at 31 December in each year is as follows:rate for living in college halls or lodgings. Additional grant is also available in appropriate cases for dependants, students aged 26 or over and disabled students and for travelling expenses, extra weeks attendance and special equipment.The value of university awards is calculated under the Students Awards Regulations. Discretionary awards for further education advanced courses are calculated in exactly the same way as mandatory awards, and their respective values are identical. However, discretionary awards are made under the discretionary awards arrangements while mandatory awards—that is first degree courses, courses for the diploma in higher education, courses for the higher diploma, and courses comparable to first degree courses—are made under the Student Awards Regulations. The discretionary awards arrangements also cover awards for non-advanced courses—courses where admission requirements are less than five O-levels-but the rates of fees and maintenance are lower than for the other awards.
