I am 29, & live in Leicester, England. After passing all of my GCSE's, completing my Art & Design GNVQ's & passing my A-levels in Art & Design, I was accepted onto a foundation course at 19. Shortly after I found I was pregnant & gave up my dream of becoming a high school art teacher. Now though I would love to continue my dream. I live with my partner & he supports all 5 of us (we have 3 children), & I am not entitled to any benefits. Would I be able to get financial help to continue my education? Also, things have changed a lot in the past 10 years as far as what qualifications you need in this type of work, so any information would be great. Thank you. x

  1. You need to speak with your local education authority (you can find that out from your local council) and ask .... when I studied there was a support grant and an education grant available for foundation studies only.... you may want to also check out your college or university where your degree is taught.... often you can do a degree (roughly 4 years) that incorporates the foundation study course as well - so speak with their student department .....
