Ordinarily Resident (Temporary Employment)

I saw a recent thread that alerted me to an issue I might have in the future, and was wondering if Taiko and his expertise on residency can help.
I am a recent graduate, completely eligable for student funding, born in UK and lived here all my life. However I am considering working abroad as a teacher for a year, possibly Korea, but definately outside the EU.
Would I still be eligable for student finance (be ordinarily resident) on my return? I would be doing a PGCE.
As far as Im aware I would only be on a temporary contract and my E2 visa would only be 1 year long and subject to me upholding my temporary contract.
Based on jimjam1's result in a similar situation I guess keeping all documentation and evidence that the travel is temporary is the key?

Should be fine, unless the regulations change in a huge way.0
