Part 11 of the Education (Student Support) Regulations 2011 (S.I. 2011/1986) (“the Student Support Regulations”) makes provision to ensure that eligible part-time students undertaking designated part-time courses may receive financial support in connection with those courses by way of fee loans, grants or allowances. These Regulations amend the Student Support Regulations to provide that eligible part-time students who begin designated part-time courses on or after 1st August 2018 may also receive loans for living costs in respect of some categories of such courses.
