You should have received a payment schedule letter giving the exact date from the SLC. I think it may vary slightly depending on your term dates, but the second installment will generally come farily early in the new year.
In fact, here's an official answer from Student Finance Direct:

Can I change the payment dates of my loan instalments?

No, you can’t change the payment dates for your loan instalments. The payments are always made at the start of each term. These are the dates specified by your university or college.

Around the middle of January. Mine's on the 19th I think, others have said their's will be paid on the 15th.

I get mine on the 8th of Jan, the first day of term, as I did last term.
It'll be at the start of your term, that's the idea, but for exact dates log into www.studentsupportdirect.co.uk and go View Payments, it'll tell you there.

Just tried to login and it's asking me loads of stupid questions I DEFINATELY did not provide answers to. Where did I meet my PARTNER? (I'm married now?) and my favourite INSTRUMENT :confused:

A lot of payments are going out on the 8th. But it is usually the first week of term, which will vary depending on which uni you are at and which course you are on.

My accomodation fees for the first term were more than my loan installment. I've been living off my overdraft...
