Educational package for school children
Schoolchildren under the age of 25 who attend a general or vocational school receive an allowance for school supplies (e.g. writing utensils, books, etc.). If pupils under the age of 25 live in your community of need, the benefit is automatically transferred to you at the beginning of each school semester with your regular citizen's allowance benefits.
In addition, other so-called "benefits for education and participation (BuT)" can be applied for from the City of Dortmund. These include, for example, subsidies for school trips and lunchtime meals. Further information and application options can be found on the website of the City of Dortmund.
