If one parent works full time earning £27.5k and the other is a full time uni student and the child is 3 years old do they qualify for the free 15 hours a week childcare?

Thanks

    All 3 to 4-year-olds in England can get 570 hours of free early education or childcare per year. This is usually taken as 15 hours each week for 38 weeks of the year. Some 2-year-olds are also eligible
