Government funded childcare/tax free childcare
My partner is due to start university in September 2024 and i am just wondering if anyone knows how this affects eligibility for government funded childcare/tax free childcare?
We would not be eligible for any student grants/funding due to my overall income but i fear we may now lose out on government childcare/tax free childcare as both partners need to be “working” or is full-time education considered an exception? I cannot find any information related to students and this on the government website.
