Lone Parents thinking about college or university

Because of the changes in benefits requiring lone parents to work when their children are young, many lone parents in Scotland are now thinking of improving their skills by going back to college or university. One Parent Families Scotland has produced three factsheets covering the funding of further and higher education and nursing courses.

"These factsheets provide all the important information you need to know. They bring together a wealth of information on maintenance bursaries, student loans and grants, money for childcare and housing benefit. No prospective lone parent student should be without them." said Susan Rew, Information & Training Manager.

To obtain your free copy of these factsheets, please phone 0808 801 0323 or download from
the website: www.opfs.org.uk
