Hi, so I am looking at doing a maths PGCE and wondering what funding I am entitled to as a single parent. I would be doing the PGCE full time and would have no income. However, I do know I would be entitled to a £25,000 bursary so I'm just wondering if any one knows exactly what of the following I would be entitled to in addition to this. Thanks a lot.
