    Hi guys, I've been offered a place on a level 7 course doing engineering. I 'm a mature student starting this September. My question is is there support for funding for childcare as my little boy is only 2 and a half so will need a full time creche place. I will be getting BTEA or may stay on Lone Parent..
    Anyone know anything about how I go about finding funding through DIT? Or anyone in a similar situation?

    Thanks!

    you should be able to ask local welfare office for info on funded CE schemed and subvention schemes for help with childcare costs, especially if you are already getting payments from the social. hope that helps :)
