£30/month + presents!

That EMA?

I couldn't get that for a number of irritating reasons... firstly I started A-level the year before it was introduced, but in my second year I checked, and my parents had earned about £500 too much the previous year to get anything (£30k was the cut off then... I think it may have been raised to £35k but I am not sure) Even though since then my mum had lost her job and my dad wasn't earning as much (self-employed so it varies) but as it depended on the previous fiscal year we couldn't get anything.

No my parents, I certainly don't deserve state support to continue my education given I go to a fee paying school
