Hi,
I am doing a Primary Teaching with QTS course at Kingston Uni - in my third year now. I honestly would say you will not be able to work full-time whilst doing this degree, I can only say from my experience though as I did not go to Birmingham City Uni. I was in about 4 days a week in first year (the majority being full days, so usually 9-4 or 10-3), so I wouldn't commit to a full-time job until you have received your timetable really. You will obviously have placement throughout the course as well, which is full time too (8-5 you are expected to be there for). Sometimes this is spread out over the year, so one week in October, one week in December, and then usually a small block of 4 weeks in March or so. However, sometimes it is 6 weeks or more in one whole block, therefore it is really hard to judge when you will be in uni and when you will be off.
Primary Teaching is a full-time course, therefore I personally think you will have a lot on your plate already. I did not have time for even part-time work in first year as there were so many assignments to do etc. But as I say, each uni is different, but I would not commit to a full-time, or even part-time, job until you have your timetable as you don't want to put more pressure on yourself since degrees are intense anyway.
You will receive your maintenance loan, which should help to cover any costs. Your uni may also offer a bursary for first year students, so look into that. You may also be able to claim extra help from the uni or government as you would be living on your own.
If you need to work to pay bills, then that is fine, but make sure you have enough time to relax as well because uni can be very tiring at times. The only other option would be weekend work, part-time. But as I said, remember you will have essays to write too.
Hope you enjoy the course though, It's a great experience and I am looking forward to starting my career now as it has gone so quickly!
Hope I have helped.
Verity
