The Secondary Assistance Scheme (SAS) is a Department of Education allowance program that helps eligible families cover secondary schooling costs. Parents or guardians of students in Years 7–12 who hold an eligible concession card may be able to receive up to $350 towards school expenses.
For more information about eligibility and how to receive payments, visit the Department of Education website.
Applications close on Friday 9 April 2027 (Term 1).
To apply, download and complete the Secondary Assistance Scheme application form. You can type your details directly into the form. Please ensure you “save” it once completed.
Email your form to gilmore.college@education.wa.edu.au, together with a clear copy of the front and back of your signed, valid concession card.
Paper forms will also be available from the school office. If you prefer to apply in person, please bring your concession card with you. We can only process your application once we have all the required information.
If you are unsure whether you qualify or would like assistance to complete the form, please contact the school office.
