EDUCATION ALLOWANCE 2005-2006

An application for education allowance must be submitted:

• by all officials/temporary staff members receiving, in respect of their children, degressive education allowances during the transitional period (annex XIII of the Staff Regulations)
   

  Modifications as from 1st September 2005: Children <11 years old: 47,84 Eur/month Children >11 years old: 66,45 Eur/month

  
  
• 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 OF 16 OR AGED OVER 16 DURING THE 2005/2006 SCHOOL YEAR:
All officials/temporary staff members/contract staff members must enclose an original school attendance certificate with the application for education allowance (also for those children attending a European School), i.e. Section B of page 2 (signed and stamped by the school).

Please note that, following the reform of the Staff Regulations, transport costs and registration fees for schools that charge fees are not paid in advance: education allowance B will only be granted on the basis of the supporting documents enclosed with the application form for education allowance.
