School Uniform Grant Programme Now Open for 2025 Distribution
Parents and guardians across Antigua and Barbuda can once again benefit from the annual School Uniform Grant Programme, which officially launched today in preparation for the September 2025 academic year.
Now in its 20th year, the Ministry of Education-led initiative provides school-aged children with at least one uniform to support families ahead of the new school term.
The programme will run until August 29 at the Multipurpose Cultural and Exhibition Centre. Opening hours are Mondays to Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and Fridays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Eligibility criteria remain unchanged. Children must be at least five years old by December 31, 2025, and will remain enrolled in the programme through to the end of Fourth Form.
Returning beneficiaries are required to present the student’s most recent report card along with a government-issued ID. First-time applicants must bring an acceptance letter or third-term report, as well as valid identification for both the student and parent/guardian.
Nearly 20,000 vouchers were issued last year as part of the programme.
For further details, contact the programme at 268-562-7247 / 562-7248 or via email at [email protected].

how many per student
I think it’s a very nice thing they are doing
Free for ALL is never a good thing. You must have a qualifying criteria. Not everything the UPP implemented is good. It needs to be perfected. Set criteria’s for eligibility. Money doesn’t fall from the sky. And not everyone needs a handout.
I have questions. How many uniforms per student? are there selected places or can we get these from our seamstress? News with not much information does not make sense. And is time we know exactly what we are facing. And I hope we are getting enough uniforms given the rise in prices on everything
