Adult Dependents' Grant - if you have a spouse, partner or other member of your family who's financially dependent on you, you may be eligible for this grant. How much you receive depends on your income. Contact your LEA for details.
Parents' Learning Allowance - this is available to full-time students with dependent children who receive the childcare grant. It's also available to other full-time students from low-income backgrounds with children. It's to help you pay for books, materials and travel, and you don't have to repay this allowance. Contact your LEA for details.
Child Tax Credit – full-time students with dependent children may also be entitled to claim Child Tax Credit from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). The amount you receive will depend on your circumstances and income. To find out more contact HMRC.
Help from colleges - your university or college may be able to help you with Access to Learning Funds (known as Financial Contingency Funds in Wales). These provide support for students on low incomes who may need extra financial help. You'll need to apply to your college and it'll decide how much (if anything) you get.
If you're normally resident in Scotland or Northern Ireland, see further information (below) for details of who to contact about support grants.
