Funding and Childcare

Hi, I am looking into studying a full time undergrad Primary Education with QTS. I am a Mum to a 3 year old. Could someone please explain what I would be entitled to and how it would work in terms of amounts and frequency paid? I need to have an idea of how it works before I commit to the course

If you mean childcare at that specific Uni, every Uni is different - but you need to be aware that you are very unlikely to get anything like full-time hours and that you will need additional childcare elsewhere or understanding friends. And there will usually be a massive waiting list - so contact the Childcare provider at that Uni asap. In terms of funding - talk to Student Support at your intended Uni about what additional benefits etc you might be entitled to.
