N° 107-2004 / 23.08.2004

EDUCATION ALLOWANCE 2004-2005

An education allowance application must be submitted:

  • by all officials/temporary staff members receiving, in respect of their children, degressive education allowances during the transitional period
     
  • by officials/temporary staff members/contract staff members applying for education allowance B (reimbursement of registration fees/transport costs).

If your child is attending a primary or secondary school that does not charge fees (European School or other) you need complete only the first page and Section A on the second page of the form, stating the name of the school and – if applicable – enclosing the requisite supporting documents relating to transport costs.

If your child is attending a primary or secondary school that charges fees and you are applying for reimbursement of registration fees, you must complete the first page and Section A of the form and ask the school to complete and sign Section B (original with stamp).
Remember to enclose the requisite supporting documents relating to registration fees/transport costs.

N.B.: FOR ALL CHILDREN REACHING THE AGE OR AGED OVER 16 YEARS DURING THE 2004/05 SCHOOL YEAR:
All officials/temporary staff members/contract staff members must enclose with the education allowance application an original school attendance certificate (also for those children attending European School), i.e. Section B of page 2 (signed and stamped by the school).

Please note that, from 1 September 2004 (or, where applicable, 1 August 2004), transport costs and registration fees for schools that charge fees will no longer be paid in advance: following the reform of the Staff Regulations, education allowance B will be granted only on the basis of the supporting documents enclosed with the education allowance application form.

Further information and the forms can be obtained from the website “Personnel & Administration > Pay & pensions > Allocations familiales > L’allocation scolaire”.
