Childcare for students under 20 years of age
If you are aged under 20 at the beginning of your course and are caring for your own child you may be entitled to £175.00 maximum per week, per child through Care to Learn. For further details go to www.direct.gov.uk/caretolearn or call the helpline on 0800 121 8989 or speak to our Student Advice Team.
 
The discretionary Learner Support Fund can help towards the cost of childcare for a limited number of eligible students using registered childcare. Payments are made directly to the provider, subject to weekly attendance monitoring and positive tutor references.
 
Please ensure that you contact our Student Advice Team (link to contact details) to put your name on the waiting list as childcare funding is extremely limited.
