Hi LPauling,
Thank you for answering all my questions. You would qualify for London rate if your placement is at a site or sites wholly or partly within the area comprising the City of London and the former Metropolitan Police District.
In answering your query I have made the following assumptions based on the information you have given as you would be classed as a Type A placement.
1) The 2018/19 academic year is not the final year of your course;
2) Your placement is not in a hospital, health or Local Authority, prison or probation sector.
Now since you indicated it's going to be the 2018/19 academic year, the policy hasn't been confirmed for that year yet but the funding should be similar to 2017/18 academic year but would be a little bit more. So you would be entitled to at least £3585 for your Reduced Rate Maintenance Loan at the London rate.
We would need
Thanks
