First Year Social Work Placement Questions.

So my girlfriend is currently studying at Anglia Ruskin University for Social Work.

She is getting increasingly more stressed about her up and coming placement, to put her mind at rest about a few issues I want to know what you guys and girls have to do within your Uni's and if anything I'm about to ask is weird.

1.) Does she need to change her car insurance policy to her using the car for business?
2.) Is petrol and/or travel expenses paid for?
3.) Who can provide her with any financial help? As the University is adamant against it.

Sorry if the questions seem a bit blunt, I've only just recently found out that these issues in particular were bothering her.

1) as a first placement she shouldn't be using her car for business, she will be travelling to a place of work though..... so its up to her if she changes it or not.
2/3) petrol, travel and expenses are covered by student loans. Did she apply for a loan at the start of uni.... this money is meant to cover course books and travel etc.
