When you get your student NUS card you will be able to apply for a discounted Oyster – see here for a list of prices:

You will also be eligible for a Young Person’s railcard which will give you discounts on National Rail services which do not start and end in London.

My son is 17, studying in the 6th form for his AS levels. He has a Student Discount Card, available from the NUS website (if your school/college is eligible it will be listed) for shopping and a Student Rail Card for the national train network (see http://www.railcard.co.uk). I think someone has already mentioned about the Oyster Card.
