Hi i currently claim Income support. I have a 5 year old, and i have been accepted onto a 2 yr fulltime course, im baffled about the fees student services have not informed me too be honest and a lone parent advisor was useless too. I'm sure the course should be free, and i am entitled to help with the cost of my kit. Oh and after school care..PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

my  younger sister has a baby and get by with gov. help they pay for all her school and they should pay for your too. you can apply for fasfa and get student financial aid or when you go get your income support tell your advisor of what you wannna do. and most two year schools (community colleges) offer child care. i think there are a lot of benefits that you are not taking advantage of
