Blended learning eligible for funding (Post Grad)

I am wanting to apply for an MSc after gaining a first class BSc 3 years ago, and working as a research assistant in between at the same university and currently. Nobody in admissions at another local university will tell me if the blended learning course is classed as a taught masters, as I still want to continue in my role in research and do a masters part time. My university does not have a masters I want to do. Could anyone help re the funding for blended learning please? Sorry, to clarify, I am wondering if I can apply for the government loan for blended learning courses. I was 51 when I gained my first and now 54, so obviously time is of the essence.
