Quitting work to do PGCE...help!

Hi,

I'm considering quitting my job to go back to Uni to do a PGCE. It all depends on the finance I can get. Obviously I've been working these past few years and SF are going to ask for my income from 14/15, but obviously the year i'm actually going to be going to Uni, I won't be earning a penny! Will they take this into consideration?

I have two kids and a mortgage, so will only be able to do the course if I can get the full maintenance loan. My husband will continue working. Will we still qualify for tax credits too? As he is still working full time.

Thanks x
Hi abbieball

We would use your partners income to assess your application. Please see the student finance calculator: http://bit.ly/1eWRiXJ for ideas on how much funding you may be eligible to receive.
In this instance you may be best to apply now. We can process the application and let you know exactly how much funding you will receive. If you are unable to study or change your mind, you can simply cancel the application.

Thanks
